My Sea-Inspired Story

I focus on small-batch, hands-on creation, using responsibly sourced shells, driftwood, and resin to preserve the ocean's stories. My process blends traditional craft with modern design to produce pieces that feel both timeless and vibrant.

Cj's Sea Crafts: Beach-Flotsam Artistry from Shells, Driftwood, and Feathers
Curate Unique Shell Pairs
I Group shells by color and size to create balanced focal points, then seal with resin for durability. Preserve natural textures by avoiding over-assembly, letting each find speak for itself, while also maintaining a simple note with beach location and date for storytelling value.
Preserve Texture with Resin Depth
I Layer resin in thin, even pours to enhance texture without obscuring shell details. I also use UV-resistant resin to prevent yellowing and ensure a durable finish that catches sunlight.
Finish with Personal Touches
I add small accents like reclaimed rope and driftwood frames to personalize each piece. If you wish, I can also include a short story card about the ocean find and transformation for a personal connection.
Shop the Coast: Epoxy Resin Seascape Tables, Driftwood Mobiles, and Woolen Beach Bags
Epoxy Seascape Mastery
I pour layered ocean colors in resin to create depth, add subtle whitecaps for realism, and texture with sand or tiny shells. Maintain a smooth, durable surface and provide care guidance for sunlight and humidity.
Driftwood Mobile Harmony
I select driftwood pieces with varied lengths and natural curves to achieve balanced movement. Attach shells and feathers with secure lines, apply a protective coating, and test wind resistance for long-lasting display.
Woolen Beach Bags: Coastal Comfort
I knit with weather-resistant yarns and line with waterproof fabric for beach trips. Add sea-glass buttons and sturdy handles. I use natural woolen fibers that are durable and easy to clean after daily use.
My Coastal Creations Process: From Beach Finds to Epoxy Artworks at Cj's Sea Crafts
From Finds to Form: Concept to Creation
I sketch initial designs, sort materials, and prototype in small batches. Test color balance and scale, then refine before committing to a final piece. This deliberate process keeps the beach's character intact.
Drying and Curing: Patience Pays Off
In controlled humidity and temperature I ensure proper curing of resin; label cure times and protect finished pieces from dust. Rushing can cause air bubbles or dull surfaces.
Final Touches: Signature Details
Finally, I add a last seal, branding, and packaging that reflects my coastal branding. Each piece receives a care card and a short origin story.
What My Customers Say
I was skeptical at first, but the beach finds were transformed into a stunning piece that feels both natural and refined. The finish is flawless, and it brings the ocean into our living room every day.

The driftwood mobile brightens our coastal home and the craftsmanship is outstanding. It feels sturdy, arrives ready to hang, and the colors echo the sea perfectly.

The epoxy seascape table is a centerpiece that sparks conversations. Depth and color are mesmerizing, and the finish has held up beautifully against everyday use. Excellent customer service.
