Bonaire shell art

Bonaire shell art, originally uploaded by Barking Dog Enterprises.

A trip to the hardware store for some copper wire was all it took. The copper wire - and it had to be copper - lends itself to a span of three sea shells across the perimeter of the Caribbean-themed scrapboard.

Buying each shell at a local art fair on the Caribbean isle of Bonaire was one of my greatest pleasures. Each came in a tiny brown bag with a cute sticker. I'm glad these shells have come out of their bags to display their beautiful selves - er shells.
