Seashell Christmas Ornaments

Yay! It's Fridaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! And tomorrow is craft show day at Harvest Village! If it's as cold tomorrow morning as it is this morning, I will be bundled up like there is snow on the ground :P
It's 37 degrees! BRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! Coat, hat, gloves, scarf, socks and REAL shoes weather! And I'll be sellin seashells in the cold lol until it warms up to that promised 77 degrees in the afternoon :)

I totally despise cold weather, and I'm so very thankful that it's a rarity here!

I have several new items I've added to my stock :) One of them is seashell ornaments.

Pink sun and moon shells make great shell ornaments.

A coat of Glamour Dust paint in Ice Crystal adds a nice Christmasy touch :)

A set of white sun and moon shells with gar fish scale 'poinsetties' on them with a coat of clear gloss added for protection and shine.

These might be my favorites. Okay, they probably ARE my favorites! Yeah, they are :D

I really think my tree needs a set of these poinsetties!

I only did two sliced shell ornaments, cause that is all I had in this size of sliced shells.

A little Glamour Dust paint in Gold Glitz makes this sliced shell ornament sparkle and shine!

This is a different kind of shell, it's a tibia....the same kind of shell I made a mermaid crown out of. (That is another post!)

The jingle bells are fun and Christmasy.

Love this one, too! Okay, so I really do love'em all!

There may be some new additions to my Christmas tree this year!

So should I sell my sun and moon shells individually? in sets of 3? sets of 4? or sets of 6?
I'm thinking $4 each for the sliced shells, and $3 each for the pink and $4 for the poinsettias. With a slight discount for sets.

If you want any of these ornaments email me quick and I'll do a custom listing in my Etsy shop for you!

I still have some white spiral turitella shells to turn into ornaments, and some starfish. I also made a necklace and earrings, and new mermaid bookmarks. Today I'm finishing up the mini shepard  hook bookmarks, too. What ever I don't sell tomorrow will be photo'd and listed in my shop :D

I'll see you on Monday with craft show pics and tales, and I've got to show you my new purple shell necklace and earrings. Dark purple shells!

Have a great weekend!

All That Glitters is Not Gold

 It's Silver and Blue!

I've been crafting some new Christmas decor that suits my Christmas color scheme better than all of my old red and green items. Some of my old things have sentimental value, but I left them in their boxes this year.

When I say crafting I really mean putting together. There isn't anything extensive in my decor items, just simple and easy.

I subscribe online to Better Homes and Gardens, and after browsing some decor pages last week I knew I needed something twiggy. Twiggy is in!

East coast meets west coast. Shells and pinecones I have collected look very cool and Christmasy together.

Just for fun, lets see this shot at night, with my lights on...

The walls look very tangerine in different lighting!

I must have deleted the other pics of this table due to bad picture quality....I'll take more and post with more decor because I made a cool candle with jewel box shells...and it sits in front of my mer-couple. You know...my mermaid and merman statue! The statue was actually a gift for hubby for our 27th anniversary a few years ago, so technically it's his statue!

Diane sent me a link a few days ago, and it had a twig centerpiece! It was a little different than mine, and had shells hanging from the branches. It was really pretty and beachy, too! If I had only taken my pics and posted sooner!!!

If the glittery balls weren't in there, I'd take the bow off and keep this out year round! This is my favorite project this season.

What is your favorite Christmas decoration?

See you tomorrow!
