For this maritime fairy lights, the shells are Lamp foil cut out and designed with plastic contours. Natural bast and real shells complement the summery look.

Download the template to reproduce it.

And this is how it works:
The outlines of the shells are Lamp foil transferred to the paper side of the from template and cut out. Peel off the protective paper, Straw silk paper stick the motifs onto the paper and cut them out again exactly. Place the template with the printed side facing up on the special mat and the cut-out motif with the Straw silk paper side facing down on it. Use the small ball of the pressing tool to follow the inner contours of the shells until they are clearly visible on the front. Wipe Ink Pads over the edges of the motifs and the embossed lines to emphasize them. Use a scalpel to make a cross-shaped incision in the webs between the two shells so that the lights of the fairy lights fit through. Bend the motifs at the bar and fix them at the edges with some hot glue. Put the lamps through the cuts in the bars and then wrap Raffia the fairy lights around them. Leave it a Raffia little longer in some places and knot it.
