Last year whilst on holiday in Brugge I was served my starter on this beautiful shell in a restaurant that we love to visit. I brought the shell home with me and yesterday set about altering it. I added colour with alcohol inks. Added my image (Crafty Individuals) to a doiley that I had inked with distress inks. I then added shells that I had collected on the beaches of Spain and my home town of South Shields I adhered them with silicone. A bit of string finished off my collage. I then added 2 ringpulls to the top and threaded them with some suade ribbon that I added beads to act as stoppers.
I really like how it turned out - hope you do too
