Say hello to this sweet little snail — one of my favorite quick projects because it fits on a single square pegboard and reads super easily on the pattern: each square is one bead, so take your time counting rows, especially through that spiral shell.

My tip: start from the center of the shell and work your way outward bead by bead, it keeps the rings nice and round. Once you’ve ironed it (always between two sheets of parchment paper, low heat), let it cool under a heavy book so the plate stays perfectly flat.

With that cute little face, this snail makes an adorable fridge magnet or a keychain for the kids’ backpacks. A fun, low-stress project for a cozy craft afternoon!
