Sailing around the Islands Hand Painted on a Scallop Shell

Sailing around the islands before heading to the sea is a hand painted shell.   Scallop shells vary in size and shape.  They are harvested from the ocean and have gone through years of wear.  Scallop well will be flat at the top where they were originally hinged and round on the other size or fan shaped.  They'll be approximately 3 inches in diameter.  Some shells with a well curved edge where others maybe slightly jagged.  Although they have been well cleaned, they remain as they were in the ocean.  The back side or "outside of the shell has ridges and may also hav barnacles I will not paint or seal the outside/back side of the design but rather I will leave it in it's natural state and color.  Typically they are either off- white, pink or a light rust red color.   After the shells has been hand painted, there are lightly sealed to protect the surface paint.  All shells will come with a ribbon at the top for easy hanging.   Scallop Shell make wonder additions to your Christmas tree, o
