I love working with different material and have always been fascinated by the beauty of the sea and the creatures that live in it. Found this Abalone shell at a shop that sells random items, I was instantly attracted to it, it is a real beauty.
For years abalone shells have been cut up into smaller pieces and used in jewelry making and other crafts.
I have worked with sea shells before but not as big enough to make a hat. It is light weight but had to find out how I was going to decorate and embellish it without taking away its natural beauty.
I added silk flowers and swarovski crystals flower beads to add more sparkle and dazzle and added Botswana shells .
