I'm keeping this blog going while at my parents house. After the sea glass hand, it was only fitting I move on to Moms shell collection. Picked a select few to create this hand from her Bahama Island shells... love the corral and crab claw find!
Created a hand from my Mothers Bahammas shell collection
While on vacation the Inkspots made a spontaneous stop at Bobz World of the Seven Seas. From the looks of the large outdoor display of tropical fish, jungle animals, and dinosaurs, Mr and Mrs Inkspot had hoped Bobz World would be a children's adventure; a place of games, fun facts...a museum of sorts. After all, the outside display was attractive and drew them in from the road, with a large sign that read Grand Opening! It appeared to be a fun indoor place for Pinkie and Pointer to let off some energy. BUT, as they walked through the shark mouth... through the glass doors, they discovered... WHAT?! A Tourist Trap! There was no indication that this was a store! Souvenirs abound, from hats, shirts, frames, brick-a-brack and shells from all over the world. Mr and Mrs Pointer laughed out loud as they walked briskly through the large store in disbelief, before heading back to the car to be on their way. In addition to the laughter, the only other delight was the fun family photo opportunity.
I found these shells last week during an evening walk in Neptune Beach, Florida. At one time, they were comfy homes for little sea creatures. I carefully selected 6 for this hand art.
