She Sells Sea Shells....

My friend, Rhonda, at Shellbelle's Tiki Hut, is the creator of these beautiful works of "driftshell" art. In all my years of shell collecting and decorating homes with shells, I have never seen anything quite like these intricate puzzles of "driftshells"... those often overlooked shells which have been tossed and tumbled for who knows how many years. They are amazing!

Not only does she create these hearts, she has gorgeous picture frames...and vases.... and candle holders...

I absolutely LOVE the candle holders...I have one of her very first designs! Right now it's resting on a pedestal, and looks fabulous in my tabletop display. It even came with shell crush, which adds that final designer touch. These candle holders would be so beautiful for a coastal-themed dinner...or a WEDDING...or a ........

Rhonda's picture frames are 3-dimensional...meaning that larger shells actually extend out from the base, right over the edges. They're very cool! I love seeing the inner framework of these shells... 

(And to think that I often tossed these driftshells aside...DUH!)
