We all wanted more ideas on what to do with our seashells we find……so here’s more!
Jane made a WORM SHELL mirror too but it has such a different look than the one I posted on Wish Upon A Starfish. Look closely…..lots of these worm shells are broken which makes it so much fun and whimsical. Plus the STARFISH! So think twice about discarding broken worm shells, you might just want to keep them like she did to make a stunning piece like this and the one below.
And more!
She even buys a few starfish to add to the depth of the frame above. Below, instead of decorating the frame, she painted a background and framed her shells to make her seashells a shadowbox art piece.
Can you believe how many beautiful things she makes for her home using seashells she finds? I’m in awe of her creativity and that she keeps on going. She told me her next project was a table embellished with scallops for the end of a hallway.
I saved this photo of her mailbox for last. She said she used lots of shells that were broken on this one too since sometimes they lay flatter so there’s more surface for the glue to set. Even shells that are broken can get turned into encrusted, crafty happiness. Thank you, Jane, for sharing all of your wonderful ideas!
Love all of Jane’s creations! The worm shell mirror is beautiful :)
Cool!!!! Jane you are good!! Phyllis
I love these. Especially the worm shell mirror and frame. Very creative. Once again thanks for sharing. I look forward to this each day.
Jane ~ I forgot how talented you are!!! Really nice…
Gorgeous!! Now I’m going to go thru my shells and see how many worm shells I can find….
HOLY CANNOLI!!!!! Very creative and “crafty”. No need to be so selective when you have a way to use even the broken shells…I hope I can find some worm shells when I return to Sanibel at Christmas! Are they more plentiful at any particular time of year or is it just the luck of the draw, so to speak?
Jane, you are a wonder, just like our Pam! Thanks for sharing.
Finding wormies is the luck of the draw, unfortunately. I only used to save the ones with tips for my mirrors and frames until I saw what Jane did with her mirror. Now I think they give it such a fun and relaxed feeling when you use broken ones.
Jane,
I love your creations!! Thanks for sharing all your great ideas!

Marion- I went to your website- your seashell handbags are fabulous!!!
Thanks, really enjoyed reading your blog.
I’m searching for a 24 x24 inch shell mirror which looks like your bath mirror. Do you sell them to the public? If not, can you provide me with the name of a company of artist who makes shell bath mirrors. thank you
Hi, I am going to Bali in November and would love to know which beaches Jane found her Bali shells on? can you forward my email address to her and she can respond if she has time?
thank you!
