Turn a simple wooden box into a gorgeous seashell trinket box, or find a beautiful vintage shell box to treasure! 
Turn a simple wooden box into a gorgeous seashell trinket box, or discover the charm of a beautifully crafted vintage shell box. Whether handmade or found, these lovely little boxes make stunning coastal accents -perfect for storing jewelry, tiny treasures, or special keepsakes collected by the sea.

Seashell boxes bring the beauty of the beach indoors, adding a natural, ocean-inspired touch to dressers, vanities, or bookshelves. They also make thoughtful Coastal Gifts, ideal for anyone who loves beach decor or collecting unique seaside finds.

Some of these decorative seashell boxes can be found in thrift shops very inexpensively while other shell boxes might be true vintage shell boxes and be quite valuable to collectors. If you are on the hunt for a vintage shell box and want to ensure the box is authentic and not a reproduction, look for signs of age and original manufacturing techniques to verify authenticity.
I did a little paint makeover on a brown wood box that I picked up at a local thrift store. The lid of the box had a decorative inlay which is where I placed the shells. I used clear gorilla glue to adhere the seashells to the box. So now I have a tiny piece of local beach in my home!
