A Shell Bowl from a Beach Walk

The shells you collect in July look like clutter by August. Turn them into one object you'll keep for years.

Steps

  1. 01Choose 8 to 12 of your favorite shells from the collection. Discard the rest.
  2. 02Wash gently with warm water and a soft brush. Dry completely.
  3. 03Find a small ceramic or glass dish — 12 to 15cm wide.
  4. 04Mix a strong PVA glue or use a hot glue gun.
  5. 05Glue shells around the rim of the dish, slightly overlapping. Work outward in concentric layers if you want depth.
  6. 06Let dry 24 hours. Use as a key dish, a ring dish, or a small soap holder by the sink.
