Details
Remember your Cape May vacation with a shell tale. Your photo transferred to a cape may shell is a unique remembrance of a special time. Preserve a memory in the stillness of time by transferring it onto a photo-encased shell. Capture your favorite pet pose or perhaps a celebration of any kind and display it for all to see. Shells are sterilized, painted, and sorted by size. Your photo is enhanced and edited for the best presentation. A laser printer is used to print your photo, and a special photo-transfer medium is precisely applied to the shell and your photo. After the photo is delicately placed into the shell, it will dry for 1 to 2 days before the paper is removed. Your photo is now embedded into the shell. This is NOT decoupage. Your photo is then decorated and enhanced to your liking and embellished with sparkling Cape May sand. Your carefully packaged shell will arrive in 1 to 2 weeks.

What are Shell Tales used for?
Transform a cherished photo into a lasting keepsake by transferring it onto a shell. Create a collection of family portraits to adorn your living space or honor a beloved pet. Consider gifting one to a friend; they'll be deeply touched by your heartfelt gesture.
How is photo transfer different from decoupage?
Photo transferring is a technique using a laser printer and special transfer gel to your photo. After the shell is prepared (sanitized, sanded and painted) your photo is edited to fit in the shell. The photo is gently placed into the shell and after 24 hours the paper is removed. The shell now holds your photo (not decoupage which is gluing a photo on the shell)
