Those of you who keep up with my blog know I like to PINTEREST occasionally. The art of pinning and creating boards is somewhat addicting.
A couple years ago, I purchased a large concrete clam shell from a local nursery/gift shop just knowing I would use it for something good. The clam shell soon became a seasonal staple as I filled it with acorns in the Fall, pomegranates at Christmas time, beads & crowns at Mardi Gras, eggs at Easter, and of course treasured seashells during the spring and summer months. I wish I had pictures of the clam shell at each season---note to self!
Today, the large clam shell sits on my parlor mantle filled with some of my favorite shells collected from various beaches and boutiques around the South. The sea fan was recently purchased at one of my new Magazine Street favs, A.K.A. Stella Gray. I love adding to my vast collection of shells. I will retire to the coast. I will retire to the coast. I will retire to the coast. If I keep saying it, it will come true!
My search on pinterest took me in search of how other pinterest users utilize this large mollusk. Here are some great pics and uses of the large clam shell:
