Glittered Seashell Beach Art {Tutorial}

We made this glittered seashell beach art to celebrate water. Water is very important in Arab countries, since all of 22 countries of the Arab League except for one (Jordan) touches a major body of water.

So today we wanted to celebrate water that we need for drinking, washing, transporting and playing by decorating a sea shell.

Supplies

Sea Shell
2 colors of glitter
