As summer rolls in, many of us are eagerly awaiting trips to the beach to bask in the sun, dip our toes in the ocean, and collect beautiful seashells scattered along the shore. But have you ever thought of turning these beach treasures into stunning shell art? Here’s your guide for creating unique and enchanting shell art pieces.

Materials Needed:

  • Assorted seashells
  • A blank canvas or wooden board
  • Strong adhesive (hot glue gun works best)
  • Acrylic paints and brushes
  • Sand

Plan Your Design

Before you start gluing shells onto the canvas or wooden board, take some time to plan your design. You can opt for a simple and elegant pattern or create a more elaborate seascape scene featuring your collected shells.

Arrange and Glue

Once you’ve decided on your design, lay out the seashells on the canvas to visualize the arrangement. When you’re satisfied, start gluing them in place using a strong adhesive like a hot glue gun. Be careful while gluing to avoid burning yourself.

Add Sand

For an authentic touch, spread a thin layer of sand on the canvas to create a textured background. This will give your shell art a beachy, three-dimensional feel.

Get Creative With Paint

If you want to add more depth and color to your shell art, consider using acrylic paints to highlight certain shells or add a background to your seascape. Get creative with blues and greens to mimic the colors of the ocean, or use vibrant hues for a pop of summer.

Let it Dry

Allow your shell art to dry completely before hanging or displaying it. This step ensures that the shells are securely attached to the canvas.

Display Your Masterpiece

Now that your shell art is complete, proudly display it in your home! It’s the perfect way to showcase your beach adventures and add a touch of coastal charm to your living space. Hang it on a wall or prop it up on a shelf or mantel to let it bring joy and summer vibes to any room.

You don’t need to be a pro artist to enjoy creating art every once in a while—especially since there are so many simple paintings you can create.

In case you’re out of inspiration, DIY YouTuber XO, MaCenna prepared a great tutorial just for you. She enjoys painting and creating custom pieces for home and room makeovers, and she decided to share a couple of simple DIY ideas with her subscribers.

In this fun tutorial, the YouTuber created both watercolor and acrylic artworks. The materials you’ll need include watercolor, paper, and a brush set, all will come in handy if you want to commit to making art for the long run.

MaCenna offers step-by-step instructions in this tutorial, but you would’ve been able to recreate her work without it. She mostly focuses on abstract art with simple shapes and lines, and uses neutral and earthy colors so her art could easily fit into any space.
