How many people return from the beach with pockets full of shells and driftwood and then end up with boxes of dusty beach treasure never looked at again? This project will get some of that treasure fairy blinged up and out on display with your very own fairy ring at the bottom of the garden! (You do need a hot glue gun to make this, I borrowed one from my friend but you can pick them up quite cheaply on ebay too.)
WHAT YOU WILL NEED: -Limpet shells -small driftwood sticks -acrylic paint -Hot glue gun -varnish (optional) WHAT TO DO: 1) Lay out your shells on a piece of newspaper 2) Carefully paint all your shells in red or any colour you want your toadstools to be 3) Do a second coat when the first is dry 4) Paint on white spots all different sizes 5) Heat up your glue gun an put a big blob in the centre underside of your shell 6) Press a piece of driftwood onto the glue blob and hold till it dries. Repeat with all your shells When you are done, you can either make a fairy ring in the garden, or simply decorate your indoor plant pots with cute little toadstools!
