Awesome ideas!:
I saw this book at my aunt's house and from the time I started flipping through the pages, I knew I had to buy this one. There are the most beautiful shell flower projects with easy to follow instructions that I have come across to date. The color photos are spectacular and provide so many ideas for what to do with the buckets of shells that some of us have collected! I have already purchased my floral wire and plan on doing some group projects out of this book with family and friends. Joni Chew
Great book... inspirational, varied, well researched:
This is a book written by a professional with a passion for shells and design. I loved it... read it cover to cover, and studied each photo. Great attention to detail throughout this book. There is a great deal of content here. Why not 5 stars? I would have preferred more how-to information and technique.. like maybe 5 more pages worth. I think it was in the scope of the book, but they chose to leave it out... so for that you must look elsewhere. Be warned... if you are looking for googly eyed shell animal kinda shell craft, you won't find it here, and may be disappointed.

Shell Crazy:
If you have collected numerous shells from vacations or walks on the beach, this book will help you to use them. If you have a glue gun, you can use it to put those collections of shells to good use. Would recommend for the serious crafter and those wanting to do something besides putting your shells in a glass jar. Full of many colorful photographs and ideas. Some a little over-the-top, but if you have a beach cottage or home by the water, or even a ocean-themed room, this is full of ideas and instructions. You must really LOVE shells to appreciate this book.
"shell shocked":
Was elated to finally recieve this book.Born and raised in Hawaii i've been influenced by beautiful beaches and shells my entire life .This book is a treasure.LOVE looking at all the ways people have incorporated shells into their homes and lives.Sure,the size of the book and beautiful cover make it an ideal coffee table book but it has so much more to offer.I appreciated learning about the history of different cultures and how they have used shells in the past.The photographs are stunning and inspiring and will have you thinking about how you can incorporate some of these ideas into your life.Thank You for a beautiful book!
