Stylish Reuse Ideas for Oyster Shells Discovered Abroad

Oyster Shells Become Stylish ♡

DIY is amazing, isn't it? "People with dexterous hands can create items that have the same or even higher quality than those sold in stores. I really respect that," I often think as I easily get a glimpse of others' hobbies on the internet.

I always find myself inspired by the DIY projects found worldwide on Instagram, and among them, the reuse arrangement of oyster shells that I will introduce in this article has moved me the most ♡

The insides of oyster shells can be transformed into art by painting or drawing, or they can be made into dishes...

The oyster shells, which I used to think could only be thrown away after eating (and throwing them away is heavy and spiky, making it a hassle!), can be reused so stylishly?! The world really is amazing!!!! I was so surprised that I decided to summarize it＊

DIY Ideas for Oyster Shell Arrangements＊

A popular idea at stylish weddings overseas (?), to use oyster shells as place cards.

Calligraphy your guests' names on the backside of the shell and paint the edges in gold. Guests will surely be surprised to see oyster shells transformed so beautifully.

There are also ideas for incorporating them into home decor, aside from weddings.

Using them as "spice holders" was incredibly shocking. I've never seen such stylish salt and pepper holders before.

This one has the inside painted gold.

This one has even been painted ♡ It's practically a piece of art＊

I'm surprised to think that the oyster shells after eating can be repurposed into beautiful decor!!!

After discovering these ideas, I was astonished, thinking, "How much more stylish could my life have been if I had repurposed the shells instead of just throwing them away...?"
