Travel & Beach Keepsakes: Preserve Your Favorite Vacation Memories
Don't let those seashells or beach pebbles stay hidden in a drawer. I turn your travel treasures into functional art pieces like lamps and trays, so you can keep that holiday vibe alive on your coffee table forever.
Are you a beach lover? If you can't go to the beach every day, I can bring the beach to you. I made this beach lamp for my own corner, and I love the calming glow it creates.
I promise you haven't seen something like this. This gorgeous Marina tray took my heart. I encased a real star fish, pebbles, shells, and sand to create this piece. You won't be missing the sea view with this.
I encased the beach in this beautiful art piece, complete with real pebbles, sand, and shells. I love the tiny details and the calming waves. It's something you can look at every morning to feel refreshed.
For this engagement ring platter, the bride-to-be wanted a sunset beach theme to match her wedding colors. I created this 8-inch platter with a beautiful red-orange sunset sky and a sandy shore with shells.
Trust the process and things will happen. I love how magical this decorated shell looks with the iridescent glitter. It's a simple way to turn a beach find into a piece of art.
This piece doesn't need a caption. I got a beautiful opportunity to preserve something unique. These are paper stars, preserved in a clear paperweight with tiny starfish, a truly special memory.
About Travel & Beach Treasures
The biggest thing I watch out for is moisture trapped in shells or sand, which can ruin the resin. Even if you bring me a handful of sand from a trip years ago, I spend hours cleaning and drying every grain to ensure the final piece stays crystal clear. It is a slow process, but that is how we make sure your keepsakes do not cloud up or yellow over time.
Turning Souvenirs into Decor
I believe your travel memories belong on display, not in a box under your bed. Whether you have seashells from a childhood beach trip, pebbles from a mountain trek, or sand from your latest honeymoon, I can seal them into high-gloss, non-yellowing epoxy resin.
The Process: It is All in the Details
Preserving travel items involves more than just a pour. If you send me seashells, I first clean and dehydrate them to prevent any trapped air from bubbling up. If it is sand, I sieve and dry it so the color remains vibrant against the resin. I treat these items as if they were my own, because I know they carry the story of your travels.
What We Can Create Together
- Marina Trays: I use real sand, starfishes, and shells to recreate an ocean effect. These look great as serving trays or centerpieces.
- Beach Lamps: These use deep-pour resin to house your souvenirs, illuminated with warm-white LEDs. They create a calming glow that brings that 'sea view' feeling right to your room.
- Paperweights & Decor: Smaller items like paper stars, single shells, or sand patterns look perfect in smaller, crystal-clear resin blocks.
A Quick Note on Shipping
You do not need to be local to get this done. You can ship your souvenirs to my studio from anywhere in India. Once we chat about your vision and the size of the piece, I will share the design plan before I start the final pour. This way, you get exactly what you imagined.
