Handmade Seashell Pendant on Budivis

Seashells are a common sight along the coast. They can be found in streams and rivers, beneath the sand, and even washed up on some beaches. Seashells have a variety of different uses throughout coastal regions. As well as being decorative, they also have practical purposes within some cultures.

What Are Strand Shells?

Spend a day in a local beach and you’ll soon notice how many seashells are all around. Seashells are the shells of marine animals that have been trapped in the sand by the force of the waves. There are three main types of seashells found in the world. They are the gastropod, the bivalve, and the cephalopod. The gastropod has a conical shape with a thin, whiplike outer layer. The bivalve has a two-lobed outer layer, which is often used for decoration. The cephalopods are flat and disc-shaped. There are various colours and patterns found in seashells, and they vary from species to species. The most common colours are white, yellow, orange, brown, grey, pink, and purple.

How to Make a Seashell Pendant

The first step is to find the right seashell pendant base. Seashell bases come in different shapes and sizes, but they are all created out of the same material as seashells. Seashell pendants can be made from marine plastic, but they also come in metal, glass, and ceramic bases. Next, you need to find the right seashell necklace cord. Seashell necklace cord comes in many different colours and lengths. The colours can help you draw out the detailed patterns in your seashells. Wrap the seashell necklace cord around the pendant bail clasp. You don’t want the pendant cord to be too loose or the seashells might fall out. Then, thread the seashell pendant cord through the pendant cord clasp. Place the seashells on the cord and wrap the cord once around the seashell. Add a lobster clasp to your seashell necklace to help the cord stay put or add some beads or a pendant to your seashell necklace.
