This past week we went on a night cruise to 3 Rooker and even though we had close encounters with both a type of sting ray :( AND dolphins :) I was able to find a untouched mussel shell in mint condition AND in one piece. I brought it back- soaked it, then bleached it in a 50/50 solution. I had to repair it a little at the hinge which I did with hot glue. It didn't want to lay flat so I attached a washer on the bottom and a little piece of felt so it wouldn't scratch my dresser. Finally- I put a layer of baby oil on it- which made it shine! A beach jewelry holder...

I don't know if I've posted this or not. When we were at the sandbar north of Anclote last summer- I started collecting shells with Nat and placed them in the shape on an /S/. Uploaded the picture to CVS and inserted it into their
Easel Art piece.

These shells are in a pretty pink basket in Nat's bathroom- a cute, easy and cheap way of decorating!
