• Use as a jewellery or trinket dish, soap holder, or a centerpiece on your table.

Garden Uses:

• Crushed pāua shells make a stunning addition to your garden or path providing calcium for the soil and acting as a natural mulch.

• Use whole shells to edge garden beds, grow succulents or create a unique outdoor feature!

Crafts:

• Incorporate shells into DIY projects like wind chimes, photo frames, or mosaics.

• Polished shells make beautiful gifts or keepsakes.
