Seashell Mail Organizer: Add Shells for Border

Video Transcript

"Alright, and now we're going to continue with decorating. We've got all our functional space. We've got our pen holder and we have our mail holder and our little note holder here, so we're going to continue decorating and personalizing it, getting into it with a lot of fun. I've got all kinds of shells that I'm going to be using. Again you can use beads, sand, anything you want, we're going to come back and use some paint more paint too, so I'm going to start taking these shells and I am going to kind of glue them sporadically. For this shell, since it's nice and open, I'm going use our glue, our tacky glue, which is the same as our epoxy glue, because we don't want all that hot glue coming up through the center. And this dries clear, and it's nice and thin. So I'm just going to apply that to the shell and I'm just going to put if right here and press down and again if any comes up between that, any of the glue comes up because you're done with the tacky glue and the epoxy glue, it's going to dry clear. I'm going to repeat the process on this shell here and again you can buy these shells at your local craft store or you can go and find them on the beach which I think is the most fun way. And I'm just going to continue all the way around and make myself a nice little border of shells. Again, using the same tacky glue and I'm just letting them sit there and get good and dry before I touch them again; even strip of glue and face down on the wood; it's really a cute little border of shells that you have there."
