Now that the holidays are over I can post these!
I made these ornaments as a Christmas gift for my partner. They are shell impressions from Scrundles and Spikes, our crabs that died this winter. We always keep our crabs' first shells as a keepsake, so I snuck them out to the studio to make these!
Really happy with how they turned out. Scrundles & Spikes were great crabs and we still miss them.

Re: Crab Ornaments
How thoughtful! I'm sorry about your crabbies, but that's such a nice way to remember them by. You did a good job.

Re: Crab Ornaments
Aw how sweet!!! Love it!!
I have paw print impressions in a putty material from my dog and cat that passed away. I bought the kits at a craft store, but yours are so much nicer!

Re: Crab Ornaments
That is nice! We bury the crabs that have died in house plants and put their shells on top. Your idea is wonderful
