Clay Crabs Instructions

Step #1: Sticking A Pink Clay Ball

Begin this craft by taking a white circular paper sheet as the base for the craft and pink clay. Dough the pink clay into a ball and stick it over the middle top of the base as shown in the image.

Step #2: Flattening The Clay Balls Into Circles

Make another clay ball from pink clay but smaller than the previous one. Place this clay ball on the base above the bigger one on the right side of it. Now, press these both clay balls and flatten them to make the big body of the carb and the smaller circle be the claw.

Step #3: Making Another Claw And Shaping Them

As you made the previous claw make another law of the crab on the left side of it. Now, using a clay knife, cut out a quarter for the claw from their tops to shape the claws.

Step #4: Drawing The Hands And Eyes Of The Crab

Using a black marker, make lines to connect the claws to the body as the hands of the carb. Also, draw the oval eyes with half eyeballs as shown in the image, above the body of the crab in the middle and on the base.

Step #5: Making The Legs And Smile Of The Crab

Using the marker, draw the 8 stick-like legs of the crab, 4-4 on both sides of it as shown in the image. Also, make a curvy wide smile of the crab on its clay body below the eyes.

Step #6: Making A Yellow Crab

As you made the pink one, make a yellow crab on the right side of the base tilted to the right by following all the previous steps.

Step #7: Making An Orange Crab And Water Waves

Now, make another crab from orange clay on the left side and title to the left side. Also, using the marker make an inverted ‘v’ smile of the yellow crab and double curved smile of the orange crab as shown in the image. Now, using a blue sketch pen, make the bumpy and wavy lines randomly over the base to make the underwater waves.

Step #8: Drawing Bubbles

Using the blue sketch pen, make the bubbles on the base randomly and a bunch of them above the crabs to make them look like coming out of the crabs.
