Picture Frame

Materials:

unfinished wood frame with a wide, flat surface
white acrylic paint
large flat box (pizza boxes work great)
sand
shells
white school glue in a squeeze bottle

Steps:

1. Apply a base coat of white acrylic paint to the frame.

2. While the paint is still wet, place the frame over the flat box filled with sand and shells.

Materials:

clear glass votive holder
wide, flat box
sand
white school glue
shells
simulated liquid leading (available at a craft store)

Steps:

1. Place the votive holder in a wide, flat box filled with sand. The sand will support the votive holder while you work.

2. Squirt white school glue in the desired spot on the holder and attach a shell. Let it dry and apply another shell, until the holder is covered with shells.
