The ingenuity of human beings never ceases to amaze.
People can make something unique, or beautiful, or funny out of almost anything. Once, when traveling near a beach in Mexico, children roamed the sandy shore, selling all kinds of doodads. One could pick up a colorful blanket, basket, or any other number of crafts at very reasonable prices.
Most could be passed-up but a group of absolutely adorable birdies on a "tree" stole my heart. Everything, the birds and the tree were fashioned entirely from seashells! Imagine the creativity that took.
We are talking "tiny" here since the birds measure less than one inch each. The main shell on the bird "tree" has a delicate pink interior.
Here's what the birdie "tree" looks like from the back:
This sweet treasure has been a part of our household now for several decades. Right now, it's perched on the counter in an upstairs bathroom.
This little fellow is at the base of the tree. Maybe
he's getting some shade from the hot Mexican sun!
WHAT OTHER KINDS OF ART ITEMS HAVE YOU SEEN MADE FROM SEASHELLS?
