Sea Shells




What do you do with all those interesting shells you find at the beach?
We like to make necklaces out of them. Here is our most recent batch.
Sometimes we keep them for ourselves.

Other times we give them as little thank you gifts. At the end of the last school year we gave them to my kids teachers with a note that said,
"Something from my favorite place for one of my favorite people"
They were a huge hit.
The trick is to find ones with holes already in them. Unless you have a diamond drill bit. (Seashells are next to impossible to drill otherwise) We also lacquer them so they look fresh from the ocean (shiny)
