My designs are based on a combination of my own illustrations, as well as those by local artists, and pre-printed decoupage. I carefully select patterns to fit the shells and then transform them using my own unique craftwork. I finish my shells with gold gilt or sparkly silver edging, and a coat of epoxy resin to give them a long-lasting high shine. There are so many options for these shells. They make great trinket dishes, jewellery dishes, ring trays, ornaments, hanging ornaments, and are gifts that are truly unique and environmentally friendly. They make wonderful wedding favours, as well as bridesmaid, engagement, anniversary or graduation gifts. Any special occasion can be marked with a shell!
