Altered spectacle case
I have to admit that this sat on my desk for several months before I managed to come up with an idea. It was the fact that everyone else had done theirs, that spurred me on.
I painted the case inside and out with acrylic paint, and when this was dry I glued some shells in the bottom bit, and fibers for seaweed, and a couple of seahorses in the top. I added some diamond glaze in the bottom so that it looked wet. The outside of the case I painted with a metallic turquoise, and before it goes to my swap partner, I'll glaze it to stop the paint chipping off.
