These seem simple and clear-cut to do. Although they are dissimilar colors... I hope that it motionless works.

Hmm.... I'm going to try this one soon that is for sure. I have tons of stirring sticks just kicking around. This seems simple and straightforward to do. Though they are different colours... I hope that it still works. Will post my pics when I get done a few. :D

I once impressed a girl by tying one into a bow using the tea light that was on the table. Never thought to make a animal for her. (I was waiting for a friend who was VERY late).

Good work on the antennas, jonnyboy323 :) I failed to mention this in the video - When heating the snail's belly in order to join it to the base, be careful not to melt the antennas. In the video, you can see that my fingers protect them as I'm holding the snail above the flame.

That's brilliant! So the plastic curls on itself, just like that?

Yes, the plastic curls on itself, but sometimes you need to stop it from deviating off of the spiral and let it cool off for a second.

Magnificent. Only trouble is, this is going to seem like a really good idea the next time you are out, having had a few drinks, and see a cocktail stirrer. Mmmmm...the smell of burning plastic and searing flesh.
