My son's shells are on chalkboard in the navy frame, my daughters are on the pink paper, in the pink frame in the shape of a heart. No surprise there:)
This was part of our spray paint marathon. Also, I just want to put out there, that when I craft it is with my kids, so I would not have chosen the neon pink backing in the pink frame, but there is only so much arguing over a craft project I'm willing to engage in with a four year old:)
Oh, of course given the colors, these projects wound up here, in our spring mantle.

I love that you craft with them -- we're all artists until we grow up. :)
Happy Weekend!
Great project and they look beautiful on your mantle! I love the idea of letting the kids make some decorations!

"but there is only so much arguing over a craft project I'm willing to engage in with a four year old"- I can so relate! LOL I do love your mantle though, did you make the art piece hanging above?

Oh you have captured my "heart". Well done!
Very cute...and colorful too! thanks so much for sharing with the newbie party.
Love this idea. We are headed to the beach next week and I will be sure to let the kids bring home tons of shells. Thanks for the inspiration.
Very cute for the kiddos. I love any kind of shell!
I love your mantel! My children would love that project; there are no shells here in the desert; just rocks! I have 2 who love pink, and one of them loves hearts, too. She would love your daughter's choices!
It's wonderful! I love the pink on pink...and when they choose it, there is no sense in arguing, is there? How sweet!
You have a lovely collection! I found you on Debbiedoos and I'm now a follower; would love for you to do the same. Tx
Beautiful! I love the heart. I need to turn my daughter loose with the glue gun and her shell collection! Thanks for the inspiration.
