We’re just back from being on holiday which always means one thing for us – the kids can be pretty much guaranteed to bring home a crazy amount of seashells with them! Living near the beach anyway we’re no stranger to making a lot of sea crafts for kids, but I thought it would be fun to round up some seashell crafts for kids to help give us a bit of inspiration for our haul! Which is your favourite?!
