She Sells SeaShells By The SeaShore

Since I am going to the beach for vacation very soon I have been thinking about things I could do with seashells. Here are a few ideas....


Hmmm, wonder how many starfish are on this stunning mirror??

This is an easy project and so cool!


Here's something to keep you busy for awhile and use all those seashells you've collected!



Use a Rotozip to put a groove in the shell to use as place card holders!


Rope and shells made into napkin rings...perfect for your summer table!



Wow, this is stunning! If you have alot of shells..go find a lamp at a garage sale & get busy!


This is seashell encrusted letters...get the cardboard letters from Hobby Lobby and start attaching the seashells. Makes a great statement on a shelf or mantle!

You could get a fillable glass lamp and just pour in all those shells. Love how there are a few dyed shells in there to match the lamp shade!

Hope I find lots of shells on vacation!!

How lovely! I really like the last lamp. You can put shells in it in the summer and then change it if you want in the other seasons. Thanks for sharing.

That starfish frame is awesome!
How many do you think it would take?

Thanks for the great shell ideas. I see a couple I would just love to live with. I need to do a search for some fillable lamps.

Beautiful ideas! I especially love the first mirror and the lamps. These would be perfect in my mom's bathroom.

I think a lot of these are beautiful although they do look like a nightmare to clean except the last so it wins my #1 fav. vote! ;)
