Seashore Sunday

Hello Ocean Lovers!
I thought I'd share some more pics from fishing trips....cause my grandson is the cutest little fisherman out there, in my opinion ;)

I hope you enjoyed a quick trip to the Gulf, and thanks for hanging around!

I know we all have plenty to do in the coming weeks, so this will be my last Seashore Sunday post for a while. I'll still be around, and may slip in a Seashell Saturday post once in a while, too....but I'm going to concentrate on getting ready for the holidays, and posting during the week.

I hope you all will join me....who knows what I may post next???
I still have several shell projects in the works, and you will find some of them in my shop. I'm sure to want you opinion on somethings, too!

Aaaaand I have a couple of somethings saved for a Christmas time Seashell Saturday.

It's getting close to orange pickin' season around here, and I'll be going out to the groves real soon! MMMMM fresh Florida Citrus! I can't wait!

See you soon!

I hope you've had a wonderful weekend!

<3

Seashell Saturday

Welcome to one of my favorite days of the week...Seashell Saturday!

I wanted something totally lighthearted and FUN today, and I think I found just the right thing!

Ladies, get out your hula skirts!



Isn't that just the cutest video?!

I didn't know Minnie knew how to Hula!

Do you like to dance?

Thanks for joining me today, and I'll see you tomorrow!

Have a FUN day!

Everything's Coming Up Roses... Seashell Rose Rings That Is!

I had a eureka moment a few days ago, and I had to pull out my shells, and epoxy. This little light bulb lit up over my head, and I couldn't turn it off until I did what I needed to do!

Now don't go imagining that I glued shells together to resemble roses. I'm not that kind of shell crafter. I wish I was, but at this time, I'm not. Maybe someday!

Maybe I should just stop rambling and show you what I did. It was really simple. Too simple really.

Look very closely and you will see that those are 2 different rings, 2 different shells. The one above is slightly larger, and the one below the tip of the shell extends further down the stem. I didn't dare drill these. They are really thick for such a tiny shell, and I was afraid of breaking them. But I wanted to use them so very badly! So, now I have shell rose rings!

These turned out cute, too! You are going to start calling me the crazy shell lady for sure....if you don't already! LOL!

and since I had a couple more of those little calico scallops laying out....

I told you it was too simple! I do LOVE the results. Too cute! Now, I'm waaaaaay to old for these seashell hairpins, but I can see them in a younger woman's hair.  Well....they might be cool in an older woman's up do hair do....I could do that! Like in a gorgeous up do braid. Those are so elegant!


I may just grow a tail and fins after all :D

I hope you have an AWESOME Friday!

Until next time....
