We recommend that you have at least a full weekend at your disposal to finish a kit. Estimated time? It depends on how thorough you are putting the final detailing touch to your piece.
If you have your own collection of shells and would like to use them, you should check out our shell glue or the bring your own shells kit.
If you have small children, keep your shells in a secure out-of-reach place. Shells in a child’s mouth is a no-no!
* Exact mix of colors will vary from kit to kit but will always have a nice selection of colors.

”What glue do you use?” That’s the most common question we get.
We use this glue for almost all our pieces. Easy to wash off, no toxic fumes. Transparent result. Apply when your work lies horisontally.
We've tried many different bottles. The smaller bottle is the one we have found to be best for easy application. Also available seperatly
