a cluster of snail shells

a bracelet i bought when i was in the philippines last year, made of a strand of tiny snail shells. you can appreciate the size of the shells by the clasp slightly at the back. i'm afraid to use it, as i feel the shells would come alive and would crawl all over me.

for the macros-shells challenge.

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are greatly appreciated.

by the way, i watched the movie "hidden figures" yesterday. now i want to read the book!
This is very nice! Wonderful. Love it.

Well at first from their colours I thought they might be lollies (candy)! Caramel, and peppermint and liquorice! I'll keep thinking this ..... rather than the hidden snails in their tiny homes!

I love this shot - and definitely tops among the challenge! I'll bet nobody envisioned such a composition for this challenge. Now as for wearing it.....

Such a pretty necklace - more of a summer time beach apparel than in the middle of winter type jewelry.

what beautiful shells

They are very pretty- I think you're safe though. I'm sure the occupants are long gone.
