Seashell Critters

If you love seashell decor and you love to collect seashells but sometimes wonder what to do with all these lovely treasures, just have a look at these lovely seashell critters you can create (especially with your kids!) – I came across these whilst browsing the Internet and found them absolutely adorable…

It is a very simple seashell decor idea but I think it is very effective – it will definitely bring out the kid in you!

Just click on the picture and it will take you to the page where you find instructions on how to do it. It’s really super easy! Don’t you just love these little faces – and I am sure your kids will enjoy them, too!

If you think about it, you could even create Christmas Ornaments with these – just add little beards made from cotton wool and add little red felt hats… Be inspired, there are so many ways to create unique seashell decor!

Flowers On The Beach

It has been a while since I posted on my blog, shame on me! But it is just sometimes the way that life gets way ahead of you and there doesn’t seem to be time for anything anymore. I hope it will get better soon.

Today I quickly wanted to share one of my craft ideas with you. I love to paint and draw, and I found that most times I do so I end up doing some picture of the beach or something related to it (shells etc.).

Even if the resulting pictures might not look overly fantastic just looking at them, quite often when you just put them in a nice frame they look totally transformed.

So don’t be shy, just try and start painting or drawing your favorite beach scenes, and let yourself be surprised at what you can actually create! Plus, when you hang the pictures in your home they can be a point of discussion if you have got friends over to socialize.

I have attached a picture I did in a 3 hour painting course on a holiday in Queensland.

Have fun painting!
