When I went to the December show at Scott Market in Atlanta, I met Mary Robertson of Shell Art & Design. I wanted to show you some of her work.
She said she is showing pieces of jewelry and shell decorative accessories at the Jacksonville Beach Museum, in Jacksonville Beach, Florida until January 6th if you are close by and want to see her work there.
This is a lidded box with the shells afixed.
She attaches the shells to sconces, statues, picture frames, lamps and mirrors.
I'm sure you have seen books published the past few years on Shell Chic interiors. I still love decorating with white natural coral and some large shells. In the past couple of years shelter magazines have overdone the look and some say it is a trend that has gone. To me my coral pieces are everlasting and a room can still be beautifully done with shells as accessories if not done to extremes, as with any trend.
Mary's business card does not have an email or website, so I can't give it to you. I do have her phone number if you just email me.
All the best on this early Janaury Sunday.
