Cindys Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Very Nice;) They are so addicting to make. My favorite part is blowing out some shells.You did a great job for only your second attempt.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted May 11, 2007 Author Share Posted May 11, 2007 Thanks everyone for looking. I was thinking maybe I had to many shells in this one. Anyone agree? I still need practice, but I was a bit happy with this one, just not thrilled yet ! I want to try a few more over the week end, still need to find those fish! It did get easier after a few attempts. I want to thank Donita for all her help! Your GREAT!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverm00n Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I think it's perfect! I hope mine turn out as good. Where did you get the green leaves? I couldn't find any . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted May 11, 2007 Author Share Posted May 11, 2007 I found an old air fern I had around the house, remember those? I must have had it for yrs. But I pulled it apart and used it, one stem at a time. I found if you use your paint brush when putting the hot wax over the fern, use downward strokes and it will seperate the clums a little better. I'm still searching the town for a "whispy" looking grass. But in the meantime, the fern works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Some yarrows look like sea grass....if you start looking you will be amazed at what works well with a sea shell candle. Donita Louise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
