Seashells make awesome candles.
Here are some ideas and links to tutorials as well as shell candles to buy, made from hand collected shells. Be it for a summer party or a festive holiday display, you'll be inspired by these seashell candle ideas.
Take some deep and straight standing shells, fill them with melted wax, place wicks with holders into the bottoms and let them dry. You can pick up a block of wax and a bag of wicks at your local craft store. Also consider recycling some of your candles! I always have quite a bit of wax leftover from my pillar candles. The deeper the seashells the longer your seashell candles will burn.

Another way to approach the seashell candle idea is simply using the shells as a tray as seen HERE.
