Every year we go to a cabin in the mountains as a family for vacation. It is a time filled with hiking, playing board games and enjoying a slower pace of life. Although we love the beautiful mountains and cherish our tradition of heading to the cabin each year, I do wish I could sneak away to the beach every now and then. We don’t live anywhere near a beach, so it is a rare treat to see the ocean! Whether you live near a beach or not, these seashell candles are just perfect for summer. They are so beautiful and you won’t believe how few materials you need to create these colorful seashell candles. Kids will love helping with this candle craft because it is so easy. Set them out for a fresh outdoor centerpiece and enjoy them all summer!

You can create these colorful seashell candles out of crayons. Mix different colors to get just the shade that you want. We loved these crayon candles but wanted to make a seashell version!
