Sea on the window

Trophies obtained by honest beach work - pebbles and shells - are taken away by tourists for memory. But where to put all this memory later ?!

Designers have found a long-standing use of marine memorabilia, it is not without reason that many interior stores are clogged with artificial stones and sinks, and marine style is now in trend.
The first option is to pebble pots with indoor flowers and thus close the ground. Whether it is a thoughtful drawing or randomly sprinkled sea soil - you decide.
Some go further and lay shells on glass shelves in the bathroom.

The second option is to fill glass vases, candlesticks and other transparent interior items with small sea trophies.
Beach gifts adorn the frames of paintings and mirrors, panels, and indeed any suitable surface. You can create entire installations in a marine style - the pebbles are perfectly fastened with special glue.
The original solution is to decorate in a marine style (with shells, stones, glass polished by the sea, ocean stars and other nice little things), say, a flower pot. Knows how to do it designer Elena Vasilyuk.You will need: • a ceramic vessel (pot, planter, bowl, vase), you can also take products from glass, plastic, metal, wood - everything you want to decorate • a glue gun for creativity (not building) • a braided whitened rope 1.5−2 long m • scissors • any sea trophies
1. We warm the glue gun, in two places we glue the rope pointwise so that it stretches evenly.
2. Gently wrap the rope around the pot - 8-10 rows. We fix with glue from the gun and cut it off.
3. We select small shells (pebbles, glass) and glue the rope "belt". One drop of glue on the shell.


4. Large shells (but not voluminous!) Are glued along the upper perimeter of the pot. Glue is applied in two places - on the base of the shell and its top. "Fakes", like our asterisk, are also appropriate.


Done!
