Seashell Clovers St. Patrick's Day

Well it wouldn't be a holiday around here without making something with Seashells! 

As a reminder, you are reading the

Anyway, I had this vision of seashells coming together in a four leaf clover. So I picked up a bag of seashells at the #DollarTree. (BTW, the four leaf clover thing did not happen . This is totally a three leaf clover thing here .)
I did buy the shells and not pull from my stash because I saw them in the bag and they were all sized similarly, which I felt was going to be of importance in this little craft. 

Here's what you need. 

Seashells -similiarly sized
E6000 Glue 
Driftwood bits and pieces for stems

Using three shells I joined them together with the E6000. They don't always touch at the center and so I had to drizzle the E6000 over the center to create a strong bond. 
Next add a piece of driftwood under the group of shells and glue to the back with the E6000. Done. 

                     or 
You can paint them with a coat of green acrylic paint for a little extra pizzazz. 

They are totally whimsical and add a bit of the holiday to the home. Because I used E6000 they can be used outside. 
At this moment  I haven't decided what else I will use these for but I'm open to ideas so make sure to leave suggestions below.

Happy St. Patrick's Day 

With love and gratitude,

Michele
