It's been a busy week here, and with the kids on semester break on top of that, I have certainly had my hands full. I was able to squeeze in some craft time yesterday though, so I put the shells that we cleaned and collected earlier this week to good use.
I started 6 more orcas but I only had a chance to finish one - photos for that will come shortly. I was able to finish up these hanging heart ornaments though. I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out. The natural shapes of the mussel shells worked really well with the heart shapes I used.
For you crafty folks, I hope you are inspired by the photos. For anyone wanting to claim a few for yourself, I also sell the ornaments in my Etsy shop here:
