What's featured at Scarborough Seashells this week?
This week I have several new shells and sea creatures available in my eBay store! I am working hard to introduce new specimens each week. Some of the latest I have added are spondylus butleri, epitonium scalare, acteon eloiseae and a very cool piece of cured coral that deserves its own paragraph and photo! -->
This is an Acropora hyacinthus. Also known as Table Coral. This fantastic looking piece was farm raised and is totally aquarium safe. Farm raised coral does not endanger our already diminishing reefs and is the perfect addition to a saltwater tank or shabby beach chic decor!
Even Oprah's resident designer, Nate Berkus has a piece in his living room.
Want a sophisticated look for not a lot of money? Try some coral or a starfish. "This may surprise you, America, but I believe that every room should have a piece of sea life"
Check out a slide show of Nate's apartment courtesy of oprah.com here!
"They're here! They're here! The new 2008 Spring Sea Glass Collection has arrived!"
The Spring Sea Glass Collection is Here!
Dragonflies and Butteflies - how lovely!
Hand wrapped in solid copper and silvertone wire, these amazing little creatures are actually suncatchers! They are 3-4 inches wide, hang from a silver cord and come with a mini suction cup with hook to hang from your window. What a perfect way to welcome spring!
Making their sophmore appearance in our store, these stunning angels are back and better than ever! This year's collection dons golden halos and an exciting new color palette!
***UPDATE*** We only have a limited quanity of red, cobalt and white angels left. We are working hard designing two new sea glass "beings" that will be flying into our store in Spring 2008. Stay tuned for details!

My best friend's birthday just went by. I got her the coolest pair of Jerry Garcia guitar pick earrings from Maggie's Handcraft Studio.
I've also bought custom made guitar straps for both hubby and I (made with my choice of fabrics) A HUGE custom tote bag for the beach (which doubles to haul all my shipping to the post office) and a cute denim handbag made from a recycled pair of kids blue jeans!
This store has some of the best smelling bath salts and scrubs as well as some beautiful handmade polymer clay, plastic canvas and resin items. I bought a gorgeous polymer clay Monarch Butterfly for my mother in law's birthday- So life like you'd swear it could fly away!
Ooooh, most recently my friend Pam, owner of Country Heart Gifts, was featured on the Etsy home page! She sells these delicious lip butters... never heard of them you say? OMG they are to die for! I bought some delicious orange flavored lip butter that I swear is as juicy as on orange! It works like a regular lip balm but without getting all waxy. A wonderful experience for my winter lips!

We are a family business run by myself, Tara, and my husband, Ed. I am a stay at home mom to three terrific boys. and with the encouragement of my family, I have turned my hobbies into a new career! We live on Scarborough Beach in Rhode Island. Both Ed and I grew up on the beach and have collected seashells all our lives and have passed this love on to our children. I also design and sell the jewelry you will find in our store. I think you will see that my design is inspired by the colors and creatures of the sea! We are pleased and excited to bring you the stunning and exotic from the furthest reaches of the ocean! Enjoy your visit with us!
