Sea Decor

I forgot to post pictures of a project I did earlier this year using these 3 wooden letters. Normally I would have applied paint and mounted them on a piece of driftwood, but I decided to give them a layer of tiny treasures that I collected from the shore.




With just some glue and a little liquid gold leaf to enhance the sea urchins, I just began layering shells and sea glass all over the letters.






And then I added them to a frame that I painted over to make it easy to hang.


A romantic piece of art, laden with the sea.
