what to do with a load of shells?

[batey]

Any ideas? Dds collected alot on holiday and would like to do something with them, they are mostly winkle and limpet and mussel shells and a few whelks! TIA

stick onto a mirror, picture frame or box?

what about a cheap lampshade, make a pattern and glue them on?

A friend has glued them onto a wooden box and it looks quite nice.

Ours are in the sandpit. With occasional forays into the water table accompanied by a selection of rubber fish, sharks etc.

But if DD is an older child, then what everyone else said.

Thanks for those, off to find some glue and something for dds to stick them on!!
