I've been thinking I wanted a compote to put seashells in for the summertime, but had not come across any that fit my budget.

So I got this from my local hardware store.

And this and this from my Dollar Tree.
And glued them together to make a compote.

I added seashells and think it looks great!

If you didn't know better you would
think that it was always one piece.

My hint on this project is that less is more when using
the glue compound.

Even though it dries clear, I think I used too much.

I'm thinking about making more of these to sell at
the booth this summer & wrap the
sea shells up in white tulle for display.
