I have lots of plants in my house and like to get a little creative with the pots I keep them in. Since I love and live near the beach a lot of my decor has a beach theme. 
Materials: clay pot (any size), paint, paintbrush, shells (store bought or if you’re a beachcomber like me, your beach treasures), glue gun, glue
You can start by painting the upper rim of the pot any color you like. I chose white but a sea foam green or light turquoise would look great too. Once the paint is dry just start hot gluing the shells all around the pot. I think I know the title for my next post…”Hot Glue Guns : DIYers Friend or Foe” Don’t get me wrong, I love my hot glue gun but I can never seem to escape getting a blister every time I use it. Tip: Start with the larger shells and then fill in the empty spaces with smaller shells. Feel free to overlap the shells. Keep adding shells until the pot is completely filled. Really there is no way to mess this up…just play around with it until you are happy with the result. 
Yup, there’s Daisy again…she follows me wherever I go.
This little fellow, my fat happy Buddha, I got at a jade market on our trip to Hong Kong last summer. I think a person’s home should tell their story. Almost everything I display is my house was either made by me, made by a family member, or a memento from a trip. I like that everything is personalized and has a story behind it rather then mass produced in a factory.
Happy creating 🙂
