Having recently
returned from our family holiday with a bucket full of shells the kids wanted
to make something with them so we sat down with all our ice cream sticks and a
bucket of shells and this is what we made. You could also make a photo frame by
just using four sticks and put a picture from your holidays inside the frame

Ice Cream Sticks
Sea Shells
Glue
Cardstock
