About this Product

Truly a one-of-a-kind jewelry catchall that’s both elegant and playful.
Use it to hold rings, earrings, or small treasures on your nightstand, vanity, or dresser. It's perfect for any engagement party, wedding shower, or bridesmaid gift. Not to mention hostess and housewarming gifts, oyster lover gift, and of course hummingbird and birders gift.
The hand selected Pacific oyster shell gets ground down on the back to make it sit properly on four green glass pebble feet, the hinge is touched up with black, brown and gray paint. After applying the decoupage hummingbird art, the the shell is sealed with several layers of high gloss resin which enhances the shell's colorful nacre interior and protects the decoupage.

How it’s Made
After selecting the right shape oyster shell, it is soaked in a vinegar bath to remove any algae and saltwater buildup from the shell exterior. The shell bottom is ground down to sit properly on the glass pebble feet, and the shell hinge is touched up with black, brown, and white paint. Each decoupage image is hand-cut out and applied to the shell interior one at a time. Unlike most decoupage oyster shells, the shell interior is left unpainted, so the natural shell finish is visible. After applying several coats of resin, to protect the decoupage and enhance the shell's natural colors, the oyster shell ring or trinket dish is complete.
