Like the average nineteen/nine year old, I spent a few yummy hours on Arran trawling the beaches for pretty shells an' that. What I returned with were handfuls of leftover snail-houses, which I proceeded to forget about by leaving them on their lonesome in my caguole pocket.

Finding them was a bittersweet surprise. My pockets held the faint odour of rotting fish, but HEY - I have some pretty shells, and decided to get down and creative with them.

So, I stuck 'em on jar.

I took my jar and I took my shells, mashed up some poly-filler from the garage, and stuck it all together. It's not a masterpiece, but it was messy and fun to do. Big sis and I used to do this when we were little'uns, and it was nice to have another go.

Found some fragments of pottery along the way. It's funny that someone's old dinner plate has ended up on my desk. SO THANKS, RANDOM DINNER PLATE PERSON, it looks pretty bonny. 

Also, I probably should thank them snails. Hope they don't want their houses back.
