Decor: Sea Bouquet in White and Purple


i made this bouquet just for fun and practice. the white roses are made from white cay-cay shells and are big and beautiful. The purple shells are cut cowrie tops from cinquantagefleur. cheryl stocks and sells really cool stuff on ebay. recommend. the centers of the purple flowers are yellow litornia. the boys think the yellow shells look like corn. the colour is pretty unnatural for an undyed shell and i have to be a bit careful when i use them. but who can resist purple and yellow together? the best part of the bouquet is the tiny buds peeking out from under the natural colour fish scales. I dig those fish scales for natural looking foliage.

this shadow box can be hung either vertically or horizontally and its offered at my chesapeake street shop.
