Ten Great DIY Oyster Shell Crafts
As the crow flies, I am probably 1 mile from the Atlantic Ocean.
The Intracoastal Waterway is between me and the deep blue sea and to drive to the beach would take 10 minutes, from door to shore.
My kiddos attended a school that was within walking distance to the beach. In fact, this school is located on a spit of land that extends into a marsh off of the Intracoastal and their curriculum included Marine Science and Kayaking.
All that to say, my world is heavily influenced by the Ocean and its bounties.
But, while my home is close to the beach, I don’t want my home to be a ‘beach house’…if you know what I mean. I think I would get tired of looking at beach and nautical decor day in and day out.
I little smattering of beach-y is OK, but not too much. I have a few bowls of shells about the home, in addition to my three oyster shell DIYs…but, that’s about it.
But those Oyster Shell projects…they are some of my favorite home decor projects. It’s been almost 2 years since my last oyster shell project, but I’m feeling the need to go scrounging through some local oyster piles and make some new DIY oyster shell crafts.
All this led me to do some internet searches for inspiration for my next oyster shell project. I haven’t nailed it down yet, but I’m noodling some ideas.
While I focused specifically on oyster shells, you could easily substitute any type of shell or combination of shells for these projects. I saw some mussel shell mirrors on Google that were elegant with their purple/black hues.
