Sea Shell Ornaments
We are adore easy heart crafts for kids. And these sea shell ornaments are just the ticket for summer crafting! These would make a great DIY for ALL ages groups – even a great summer craft for preschool too!
We are forever collecting sea shells and little trinkets.. combine that with my love for buttons and we have a lot of decorative craft material. When it comes to sea shells I am always on the look out for new and cute sea shell crafts – yes, there are the age old sea shell picture frames you can make or the sea shell treasure chests.. but they no longer excite me! When I spotted these Sea Shell Ornaments, I knew I had a new craft for our craft bucket lists.
Aren’t they beautiful? All you need is a lovey day at the sea side (try and find those SMALL shells this time around – or better still, leave the shells for nature and find some gorgeous SEA GLASS – technically tidying up the beach as you go), some buttons and your own salt dough recipe or air drying clay….
Check out the original idea via Amanda Krueger and see this page for many more fabulous ideas and inspiration (especially for buttons!) – though the exact post is no longer available sadly (boo).
