Title: Shirley's Floral Sea Shell Art - http://www.shirleysfloralshellart.com/
Description:The making of flowers and designs from sea shells is an old art form that was brought back from journeys by the sailors in the 17th and 18th Centuries. Their ventures took them to Barbados where the Indians sold and taught the art of making sea shell designs in Octagon shaped boxes. Shirley Filardi has studied these techniques and has created some very beautiful floral displays and night lights made from SEA SHELLS, using todays materials and styles.
