I used the new crop of seashells to decorate the little boxes. In my opinion the shells look better on brown colored wood. You can see the difference between the light box and the others.
For the boxes I used common wooden tongue depressors and coffee stirrers. The round ones are from wooden discs.
One of my favorite facades, an oriental "Aladin's Bazaar", fell off the wall . It is a complete disaster.
The steel nail got loose and the whole thing fell and broke down. My husband blames himself
for using a steel nail instead of a screw which is best for hanging these boxes.
Mending it will take longer than making a new one. I am working hard to have it fixed. Maybe next week
I shall be able to show you how it looks mended.
A very warm welcome to all my new followers. I am sure you all have blogs but I could only locate three.

Has hecho una buena recolección de conchas, las cajas preciosas.
ReplyDeleteSeguro que el desastre lo arreglarás perfectamente
Es una escena muy bonita , un beso :). y no se notará
OMG, what a pity... but your husband shouldn't be too hard to himself, shit happens, there's no way to deny that. I'm convinced you'll fix that and I'm curious to see the result. Your boxes are lovely, and I agree, with the dark surface the shells shine brighter, but both versions are beautiful.

Dear Drora,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that Aladin Bazaar fell of. I hope
that you repait it without meeting troubles.
I love your shell boxes and I enjoy my one every day.
Hugs, Tatiana
Todo tiene arreglo, seguro que lo reparas bien. Las cajas de conchas son una monada.
ReplyDeleteBesos, Narán
Hi Drora! I like both versions of your shell boxes. Thanks for showing more about how they are made. I'm so sorry about your Aladdin Bazaar--I hope you can fix it to your liking soon. I've missed seeing you on my blog recently, but now I know you've been busy with this project. Congratulations on all of your new followers too, my friend! xo Jennifer
ReplyDeleteTus cajas de pequeños caracoles, son tu firma de identidad, son preciosas y preciadas!
ReplyDeleteLamento mucho lo de la tienda, deberás tener paciencia para reconstruirla.
Besos
Gracias por no tener palabra de verificación
Hi Drora,
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame your beuatiful Aladdans Bazzar fell down.
All that work and now more work to fix it again. I hope you can repair it back to its original beauty.
All the best, keep your chin up!
Love, Mins xx
דרורה יקרה
ReplyDeleteאיזו אכזבה....
אבל לקראת השנה החדשה בוודאי תמצאו דרך שונה ובטוחה יותר לתלות את היצירות המדהימות שלך!
שנה טובה שלוחה לכם, שנה של בריאות ויצירה.

las cajas con las conchas son preciosas! estoy segura q podras solucinar ese "desastre" q has tenido!!!!!un beso Pilar
ReplyDeletebonitas las cajas! ánimo con la reconstrucción
ReplyDeletePoor husband, it was an accident ;)!! I hope you can fix it, perhaps this thought comfort you a little: you can fix it, then aging with cracks and weathered colors painting over it all!! I'll see it when you've fixed it on your blog.
ReplyDeleteThese shell boxes are gorgeous, you're a lucky lady, you've got so many beautiful and tiny shells from the Lake of Gallilee. Thanks for sharing them. Personally I prefer the darker version , but both versions are beautiful.
Hugs, Ilona
Es una escena muy bonita. Felicidades
ReplyDeleteIch finde, es sieht beides gut aus, auch die Meeresfrüchte, obwohl es nicht meins ist :-)
