Cut x3 strands of twine approx. 24” long.

Mark x3 evenly spaced holes along the longest piece of driftwood. Drill holes through.

Dry brush the paint over top of the smaller driftwood pieces and leave them to dry.

Apply a coat of d podge over the driftwood. Separate the napkin plies to just one layer. Press the printed layer onto the coated driftwood and press in place.

Once the decoupage dries, continue drilling holes through the center of the driftwood pieces and seashells.

Working one strand at a time, knot the bottom end of the strand and then thread the other end through a series of driftwood, seashells and wood beads.

Place the wood beads between the seashells to prevent hard shell-on-shell contact, ensuring it stays completely silent even on windy days. And additionally, tie a knot in the twine underneath each seashell to hold in place and prevent them from hanging over the embellishments below.

Continue until the strand measures 20” long and secure the top embellishment with a single knot. Put aside. Repeat with the other two strands.

To complete, thread the loose hanging ends through the pre-drilled holes in the large driftwood piece and tie a knot above the hole.

Add a twine hanger at the top to display the coastal wind chime!
