So gorgeous! Step by step instructions are posted on Waterside Cottages! In brief: work the oyster shell candle holder from top down, holding five shells with interior surface upwards. Arrange oysters shells into a cup, making sure a tea light will fit inside, then glue the shells in place, using a hot glue gun. To attach more layers, turn cup upside down. Add shells as feet, if necessary, so the candle holder lays flat. Now, if you can't find oysters on the beach, you can either go and slurp a few dozen oysters at a restaurant and take them home, or do what Sandi did to create her Oyster Shell Mirror. Pick up a bag full at a local oyster factory!
This sweet shell candle holder will put you in a very relaxing mood! The hammock, of course, helps too. Picture source unknown.
And there's a baby Oyster Shell Candle Holder for sale at Caron's Beach House. Very cute!

I LOVE this! I'm pinning, adorable!
I love this candle holder! When I go to the Beach I'm gathering enough shells to make one or maybe two-just awesome!
I've always wanted one of these!
Oooh, I love it! It sort of looks like a lotus blossom - so pretty :-)
I'm not an oyster eater and we don't live anywhere near an oyster factory, but we're going to Maine in September - I'll be on the lookout for an oyster shell source :-)
I have a lot of candles...now I just need to learn to make some unique holders! I love these! ♥
So pretty! I'd love to try making it.
This is so pretty. I would love to learn how to make one of these!!
This is a neat candle holder!
There are piles of discarded oyster shells outside of the oyster processors in Washington. How I'd like to get my hands on some of them now!
Bellisimo!!!!!Elegante y a la vez rustico....La escogencia de los elementos decorativos y los colores hacen de este lugar,un spa de relax y confort.

I just made 2 for a party I am having. It is fun and easy, thanks for sharing.
Love it!
That's a great idea I should try that. We have plenty of oyster shells lying around because my husband just loves them!
