Decoupaging oyster shells with napkins is a delightful and creative way to add a touch of coastal charm to your home décor. To begin, you'll need a few supplies: clean oyster shells, decorative paper napkins, decoupage glue (such as Mod Podge), scissors, and a brush.

Start by thoroughly cleaning the oyster shells, ensuring they are dry and free from any residue. Select your napkins, noting that single-layer designs work best. Carefully separate the layers of the napkin, retaining only the top decorative layer. Cut out the desired images or patterns.

Next, apply a thin layer of decoupage glue to the surface of the oyster shell where you wish to place your napkin. Gently lay the cut-out napkin onto the glued area, smoothing it down with your fingers or a soft brush to remove any air bubbles. Be careful to avoid tearing the delicate paper.

Once you’re satisfied with the arrangement, apply another layer of decoupage glue over the top of the napkin, sealing it in place. Allow your shells to dry completely, which typically takes a couple of hours. For added durability, apply a few more coats of decoupage glue, letting each layer dry before adding the next.

Once finished, you can display your beautifully decoupaged oyster shells as stunning centrepieces, or use them as unique decorative accents throughout your home. The result is a charming reminder of the sea, crafted uniquely by your own hands.
