      1 Fold in half, bottom corner to top.

      2 Fold up the right side corner to the top corner.

      3 You will need ten or more of these, depending upon how long you wish your snake to be.

      4 Insert the unfolded corner into the triangle-shaped pocket of another piece.

      5 When completely inserted, fold over the free edges to narrow and lock the paper.

      6 Continue adding pieces to make the coiled body of the snake.

      7 Make the Snake’s head. Fold a new piece of paper in half, corner to corner. Unfold.

      8 Fold in the bottom edges to meet at the center crease.
