      yes ik that.. i actually use vsco on a daily basis but there’s a vsco girl trend going around but to actually buy the shell necklaces, hydroflasks, scrunchies, etc. is incredibly expensive and i’m broke so i’m just searching through yt to find diys so i don’t have to buy them 😂

    *for everyone who wants to make this but their shells aren’t open in the back*
    take a push pin and put it through the front of the shell so it’s touching the back from the inside. take a hammer and and hammer it softly until you hear it go through. stick the pin in the whole from the backside and pry out pieces of the shell in the back. most of the time, perfect circle/oval pieces came off. i made a choker and anklet like this! hope this helps

      puka shell necklaces or cowrie shells were popular for a long time. surfer culture or people who enjoy nature and ocean. people who live in warm places near the ocean always wore those. my brother lives in kauai-hi and there everybody wears puke shell necklaces and similar jewelry. was a trend in the nineties and now again thanks to vsco girls who want to protect nature

      Tumbling. Tutorials you should place the beads very tightly so the shells don't move

    How long did it take your shells to come, I just ordered mine from wish today.

    • @emilysara9147
      @emilysara9147  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi, that’s great to hear! Anything you order from wish usually takes a while. I bought mine two years ago so I don’t really remember anymore. I do remember though that some products only took a week to get here and others 3 weeks. I think it depends on the product and where you live. Hope that helps a bit🙂

    • @emilysara9147

      The shells from wish took a couple of weeks to get here, so if you want them quickly I recommend getting them from somewhere else.
