Hi, I’m Edwige - A Coastal Magnolia. I live in coastal Florida, and the hues of the ocean and the vibrant outdoors find their way into my creativity. Think you are not creative? I believe everyone has the ability to be creative, it just may be in different ways. Maybe painting is not your thing, or woodworking. Well, I don’t focus on one type of art or craft here. I paint, I work with resin, I’m a beast with power tools, and I even sew once in a while. You’ll never know what I’ll be doing next!
You can contact me at aCoastalMagnolia@gmail.com.

THESE ORNAMENTS FLY OFF THE SHELVES!! Plus I share pricing strategy and a HUGE mistake! Oops…
I sell so many of these oyster shell ornaments at my fall and winter shows that I have a hard time making enough! But this project almost turned into a huge disaster when the resin in my cup flash cured and turned hard as a rock in seconds!
Plus, I share my pricing strategy. A lot of people ask me about this, and I probably will do a video just on this very soon.

THIS ALMOST ENDED IN DISASTER! A resin flash cure is a HOT mess, literally, but I made art anyway!
zhlédnutí 1,1KPřed 21 dnem
This was 100% my fault. I left my resin in the cup for too long, and I experienced a flash cure. Don’t know what a flash cure is? It’s when your resin starts to generate too much heat and cures in a flash! This can be caused by pouring too deep, not mixing correctly, letting it sit for too long, etc. But I didn’t give up, and made the most of a bad situation! Links to my favorite craft items yo...

I saw a whole bucket of oyster shells at the restore the other day and never thought to get them now I wish I had. I wonder if they’re still there lol five bucks apiece I’d be rich no wonder these people I wouldn’t buy that for five dollars not even from my son‼️
go get them!
Amazing idea, thanks for sharing, they are beautiful! I'm going to try this technique on some wooden handle bottle openers I have, I was feeling uninspired as to what to do with them, not anymore, thank you! xx
Thanks! have fun!
Love the oyster shell ornaments
thank you!
They are sooooo pretty. As for my favorite 🤔....can't pick just one.
thank you!
Hi, I’m new to your channel. These turned out amazing thank you so much for sharing. I will definitely be back to watch more of your videos. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Thanks so much! 😊
Please can you tell me How much do you sell these for?
I think between 10-15. Not sure yet.
Love oyster shell ornaments! Yours turned out beautifully.💖💖💖
Thank you so much!
Love them
These are stunning!! Great job!💚🤗
Thank you! Cheers!
There is a product when painting windows it is invisible it comes as a roll on and you wipe it off 🩵💙
I think that’s liquid latex!
How do you assure you don’t have air bubbles? I don’t see you use a heat gun or heat to dissipate air bubbles. My apologies if you have already addressed this I just didn’t see it when skimming through the comments. Your work is beautiful!
Thank you! I did not pop the bubbles on this one. Normally I use a heat gun.
They are all beautiful. My favorite's are the 5 legged star fish and the one with the blue bead and white turtle ❤
Thank you!
❤❤❤❤❤

um, what?
You placed the starfish on its front legs up.
He’s studying gymnastics.

Those are really pretty spoons. The charms give it an extra compliment. Great colors. Just my 1 cent
Oh thank you!
Love the 6 star,looks like a star of David
The blue glass blobs are a scene stealer
were you trying to think of dirty pour for the type of pour?
I think I was trying to say ring pour!
When and where is the craft show that you sell at? I'd love to come to it.
my first one of the season will be Oct. 5-6 at Wickham Park in Melbourne, FL!
Gorgeous! She will love them! 💖💖
Some black, red and gold, athletic team colors burgundy, mauve and cream. Love this idea! Thanks for sharing!
Any colors you want!
Just Beautiful! Love those lids!
Thanks so much!
Great idea, wish I lived near the beach, but I’m going to the beach next weekend so I have some shells to pick up. Look forward to trying something like this.
Have fun with it! I’d love to see you do one of your blooms on a large shell.
Wow! That bubble method is amazing! Love the Seahorse and the Mermaid tale is gorgeous!
Thank you! Cheers!
They are ALL GORGEOUS! I think my favs are the 6 leg starfish and the aqua colored one with the starfish!. Love, Love your videos! Crafty Hugs from Texas.
Thank you so much!
Love the results and the sweet turtles. Did you use unstoppables or Dawn, you said dishwahing soap but had both products in the video
Oh, the unstoppable bottle is water! I reuse my bottles. Sorry for the confusion.
@@ACoastalMagnolia got it
These are gorgeous! If you don't use all your Modge Podge bubble mixture can you seal it to use later? I definitely want to try those bubbles but don't want to waste supplies. Glad I have about 150 oyster shells since you keep giving me ideas! You have become my favorite craft channel! I have been decorating oysters to make napkin rings for Christmas gifts. That is another idea of what you can do with them.
Yes, I have mine in a salsa jar! I just keep adding to it when I need it. THANK YOU so much for your support.❤️❤️❤️
@@ACoastalMagnolia Cool, then I am definitely trying this. Which mod podge works the best? Glossy or matte or satin?
I think any of them. I used matte, but I bet glossy would work too.
I have some of these jars already! I was about to donate them to Goodwill!!! Thanks for another wonderful idea again!
Girl, no. Save those jars!
I absolutely agree with you about the $5 dollar bill strategy. Also I like that you spread the resin around the whole inside of the shell it does look nice that way. Thanks again for the inspirational video. I am making some shells this week with my new "mermaid trash".
Hi, my first time watching you. Love your work. So happy you did not waste the GUPPY resin. I deplore waste. Good job, beautiful work !!!
Thanks so much! 😊
One of my favorite videos btw...bought your sand..love it..
Thank you so much!❤️❤️❤️
Buying shells and sand..possibly selling online I would think one might have to go up on price...10 maybe..would be possible... I've seen decorative shells go for much more...but trying to think of options..
That is true, especially if you are offering free shipping. I am thinking of selling the decorated shells on my Etsy. not sure yet.
I believe you're not supposed to use resin on food utensils. It's highly toxic. Idk i heard that somewhere. Fact ✔️ me
KS Resin is food safe when fully cured. Plus it is incidental exposure. I have an MSDS safety data sheet in the description.

I love these! Just wondering how much mermaid trash comes in an order on Etsy? And, do you sell oyster shells, also😊? 😍
8 ounces (by weight), which is enough to do LOADS of shells, depending on how much you use on each shell! I just made a new batch too! I don’t sell shells, but you can get them at a local seafood restaurant or market!
Thank you, I'll try that 😍
Now what do you do with them??
I see ornaments
I sell these at art and craft shows.
So pretty😊
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful work
Thank you! Cheers!
Love these! I prefer the ones without wire but that is just preference. Great idea! Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Good morning, I absolutely hate wearing a respirator. I see that you don’t wear one. I’m curious if you think that is harmful or not. From what I’m looking at they don’t say that on their directions that you need to wear respirator to have a good air flow.
I think it’s a personal preference. I choose not to wear one because I have good ventilation and I can close my studio off from my house. There is so much misinformation on both side of this question.
Thank you! I do have good ventilation, since it doesn’t s Say you need to wear respirator I think I’m gonna do the same and not do it
I usually have the ceiling fan going and my outside door open. You got this!
What drill bit do you use? I’ve been using my Dremel to drill. My shells with it constantly breaks.
I use my regular drill with a SHARP bit. Run it at a high speed and don’t apply too much pressure. The thin shells are very tricky.
BEAUTIFUL!! Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Omgosh you’re so talented! Your ideas are amazing and your artistry is fabulous! I’ve looked for the seahorses like you have and am not having any luck. Can you please give me a link to where you purchase them? They’re so pretty.
Thank you! I got these at Dollar Tree, but it’s a seasonal item.
Do you clean your shells with muriatic acid followed by water? A recall a video from a lady in Sarasota who did a CZcams video on how to clean shells. It beats lighter fluid.
Nope, soap, water and bleach!
LOVE ite absolutely GORGEOUS
Thank you!
I would suggest you strain your Floetrol (panty hose around opening works) before adding to your paint. A bunch of blobs came out and that’s just going to cause problems later on also instead of using the nail board, I just put bamboo skewers down thru a styrofoam or paper plate-into blocks of oasis foam and then set it on top of a Lazy Susan so that I can get all around my ornaments And I can easily reuse the drips paint:)
Yes, I should definitely strain the Floetrol! The nail board catches the drips and works really well. Then I make a cool abstract painting!
Soooo Pretty!!!😍💙🩵🤍
Thank you! Cheers!
Glitter next time. I love me some sparkly things!
hahaha! ok!
