2.) Sort through your shells, if you got an assortment bag from the craft store, this might take a little while. For the feet, ears and arms try and match them up size-wise as best as possible. This assures that the rabbit will be able to stand on his own and not be lopsided or fall over.

3.) Applying glue to the bottom of the turban head shell, preferable so that the opening will be at the top and the edge of the shell without the opening is attached to the body cowrie shell.

4.) Next apply a small dab of glue to the pointed end of the horse conch shell and press to the opening of the tuban shell for the first ear and repeat for the second, leaving a small gap between them. Try and position them to go out like antennae and with the open side of the shell facing forward.

5.) Apply small dabs of glue into the opening of the periwinkle shells and press to the sides of the cowrie body shell.

6.) Then apply a tiny bit of glue to the googly eyes and place on the turban shell above the point of the shell for his eyes and the point becomes the nose.

7.) Last, apply glue to the white pom pom and press to the backside of the cowrie shell for his tail!
