but what do you do with them all?
make art of course.
I started with another piece of wood I found on the side of the road (lots of wood lying around here evidently)
Then a collection of random shells in various sizes and colors
Then armed with a hot glue gun I created a heart out of the shells.
it is not perfectly square and I like that about it, so I used to twine border to emphasize it.
want some more shell projects?
shell windchime
shell display
conch shell planters

Thanks so much for linking to "20 Below Thursday"! :)
This is great, I love the use of found items and the addition of the twine. Very creative and pretty! (Lots of randomness along the roads here in Curacao, too!)
nice. My daughter has a beachy decorated cottage and we are going to try to do this project. Thanks a lot. linda
