More Crafty Ideas For You
Hello fellow crafters! If you've enjoyed creating Seashell Jar Lid Resin Coasters, we have some other craft projects that you might love to try out.
For those who love working with resin, we recommend trying your hand at making Resin Ocean & Beach Art. This project involves mixing resin with blue and green dyes to create a stunning ocean effect, then adding in real sand, seashells, and even mini starfish to complete the beach scene. The end result is a beautiful and functional piece of art that will remind you of the beach all year round.
If you enjoy incorporating natural elements into your crafts, why not try making Seashell Wind Chimes? This project is a fun way to showcase your seashell collection while creating a soothing and whimsical accessory for your porch or garden. Simply drill holes into your seashells, attach them to string or fishing line, and hang them from a wooden dowel or driftwood piece. The gentle sound of the shells clinking together in the breeze will bring a touch of the beach to your outdoor space.
Lastly, if you're looking for a project to create as gifts for friends and family, consider making Seashell Photo Frames. By gluing small seashells around the border of a plain wooden photo frame, you can transform a simple frame into a beachy keepsake that's perfect for displaying vacation memories or seaside snapshots. Personalize each frame with different shell designs to make each one unique.
We hope these craft project ideas inspire you to keep creating and exploring new ways to incorporate seashells into your crafting endeavors. Happy crafting!

These coasters are beautiful. I've been fascinated with the process of crafting with resin but haven't tried it yet. What a great way to preserve and save shells or other little things that are a souvenir from a special trip or a piece of memorabilia. We even have beaded necklaces that our Gram wore in the early 1960's. This would be a neat way to repurpose the beads.

Aren't these the most beautiful coasters you have seen? And a great way to remember a favorite beach vacation and put it to good use, am I right? It seems fun to do a craft like this especially since I have never used resin before. Now, you could take this idea and roll with it. You have a man who's a gambling man? How about layering poker chips, dice and a card inside the lid for a fun man cave set of coasters for their beers? It's kitsch. I love it.
