Please excuse my gross index finger 😭 It's still healing from the poison ivy I encountered over the summer...
Edit to add: Thanks for the interest in buying these, guys! Sadly, due to my hectic schedule, I no longer sell these online. They're only available at local reptile shows. That's why I made this video- so now you can make one of your own! ❤ Maybe we can sell them again in the future :)

That was a beautiful snail Emily 10/10 would see that snail again.

It’s really nice that you still have a part of Janet with you. He’s licking sticks in heaven

[binalakinah]

I love that you're teaching people how to make these and make the most of sheds from their snakes even tho you also sell them. We can tell it's not about the money with you, but about both your love for reptiles and your love for teaching the community. Awesome!

God creating Emily:

A good portion of cuteness
A cup of humor
A bowl of energy
And a teaspoon of taAAA- *oop* oh well, I guess its the whole jar of talent for Emily

"I like that necklace! Where'd you get it?"

*"The old skins of my pet snakes."*

[ReticulatedViper]

Why are people acting like they’re so weirded out by this? People wear cow leather and snake skin boots all the time. 😂 At least with these crafts no animals are harmed.

I just lost my 16-year-old corn snake last month. I'd had him since he was a baby, and it never occurred to me that I might want to save his shed for some reason. This is such a cool idea, and I wish I'd known about it sooner. Thank you for this lovely video. <3

Snake Discovery: *suddenly becomes my favorite crafting channel*

[monikasturm]

Yes! I'm a professional crafter and now have the perfect logical reason to convince my husband into letting me buy the snakes and lizards I've always wanted!

Me and my boyfriend of two years just got an albino hognose named Winchester. (Okay, well it’s his but I’ve claimed it as my child too). Winchester is going through his first shed right now. For Valentine’s Day we’re gonna have craft time and make each other a keychain/necklace. I’m so excited.

[marvelpovs]

My boy finally shed yesterday and now I can make some!! He normally would need help shedding but he did it all by himself including the eye caps and I’m so proud of him 🥺

[BewilderedCitrus]

"Mom said if I wait patiently I get a mouse" that is the cutest thing ever 😭😭💖💖💖

[iimuffinsaur]

"No, you don't need snails for this."

Me holding 5 snails: SHOOT

[Sienna._]

The hognose looks so cute when it’s just sitting there, I couldn’t stand it’s cuteness

[xhorizon]

You could probably use a special card stock paper with a metallic/color shifting effect as the background piece to get a really cool realistic scale look!

[charlottedavies]

Omfg, my bearded dragon has a perfect heart shaped scale on the tip of his nose. How CUTE would that be!

Snek: *sheds skin*
Snake discovery: it’s free real estate

[KoryGrayson]
