DIY Seashell Encrusted Candlestick Tutorial

My Pinterest obsession has kept me very busy lately. Not only do I find myself compulsively pinning but actually trying to create copycats of the items that are really striking my fancy. The candlestick shown below is the product of one of my endeavors.
I started with two large and and two medium candle holders from Walmart, all four
I used a hot glue gun to attach each shell to the candle holders. Starting at the bottom, I added shells from left to right and building upward while matching the shells as best as I could on each of the holders as I went along.
As I progressed with the gluing I would compare the holders to each other to make
When I was about two thirds of the way up with the shells on the candle holders
Once the shells were all in place I started placing tiny shells into any small
Enjoyed the project?
