Step by step how to make a sailor’s valentine?
I have seen Sailor’s Valentine’s and they are fascinating and I really want to make one. The problem is I can’t find any place on the internet that shows how to make them. I’m hoping someone knows how to get patterns and step by step instructions.
Thank you
First, you need an octagonal frame, and then you need a variety of Sea Shells. You can buy the seashells at your local craft store, or collecct them yourself at the beach if you live near one. You may want to incorporate a picture of yourself in the center as well. I would personally sketch out the pattern you want to use first and then use hot glue to individually glue the seashells onto the pattern you have created.
Here is a website with a lot of pictures to get you started:
