Oyster Clusters

"Two months ago my husband and I took a little roadtrip up the Eastern Shore of Maryland and along the way, we stopped at several antique stores. It was in one of these little stores that I found a great wire oyster basket. Given the iconic status of the oyster on the Eastern Shore and the Chesapeake Bay, I felt it was that kismet thing and that the oyster basket needed to come along with us. My husband, who still hasn't fully drank of my 'it's kismet' kool-aid, wasn't quite sure of what I would do with this very rusty, very old wire basket. But I assured him I would come up with something and so he just smiled that 'whatever dear' smile and off we went. However, I don't know what you would call it but kismet when we checked into our hotel that night and what graced my nightstand but...an oyster shell cluster/oyster shell ball! I mean, clearly a sign...right? When I returned home, I went right to work sourcing oyster shells for my project."
