Seashells


Andy and I were down at the beach in California a few weeks ago and collected many different shells. He really wanted to do a craft with them and I was a little weary of doing a seashell craft seeing as how I relate them to cheesy beach houses decorated in the 90's. But my smart little Andy came up with the idea of making them into magnets. It was all his idea so I give him all of the credit. We just filled them with plaster of paris and let them set for about 15 minutes. We then dropped a magnet on top of the plaster and waited for them to set completely. Aaannd that's it! It was so easy and I thought they turned out really cute. Another seashell craft I loved is found here on Martha Stewart.com. That'll be our next project.
