Hello everyone at DIYHub. I'm so excited to be here with you all. Today I want to share a project that has filled me with joy and creativity, a desk decoration made from a seashell. The idea for this project came from my memories of vacations at the beach. Every time I see a seashell, it takes me back to those special moments, and I thought it would be great to turn it into a decorative object that would remind me of those sunny days. Plus, I love the idea of reusing natural items and giving them a new life.
I hope to inspire each of you to create your own decorations and find ways to preserve those special beach memories. Creativity has no limits!

Paso nro 1
Paso nro 1
I started painting with the silver and gold gel markers. These markers are ideal because, being gel, they allow for a smooth and even application. In addition, their metallic colors are perfect to replace the gold and silver, giving the shell a shiny and elegant finish.

Then I gave it a little swipe with my hand so that both the gold and silver would blend together, creating a beautiful combination of colors. In addition, I only painted the edge of the shell gold, which gave it a special and sophisticated touch.

Since the shell has broken parts, I decided to use those areas to place the rhinestones. I want it to look like it has treasures inside, so I glued the rhinestones to the broken areas, creating the illusion that the shell holds treasures from the sea. I started gluing the pearls and crystals onto the shell using liquid silicone. I had fun creating patterns and also scattering some elements randomly to give it a more artistic touch. I also attached a bit of chain that I had from a broken bracelet to give it the appearance of a gold chain.

Once everything was dry, I glued the decorated shell to a base of my choice. This gave it stability and made it a perfect decorative object for my desk. You can choose a base that matches your personal style.
