  Step 1

  Pick some shells on the beach. The bigger the better!

• 

  Step 2

  Pick one and paint it blue. I used nail polish because it's a little transparent and you can still see the shell's natural drawings.

• 

  Step 3

  Take sharpie (one for marking CDs) and write down the letters. I copied the typography, so you must google Blue Oyster Cult and you'll find the pattern! Finally I drew the symbol. I drew it directly on the shell without patterns or schemes.

• 

  Step 4

  I varnished it with Mod Podge. DO NOT USE transparent nail polish cause the letters will melt! Probably other varnishes will work too.

• 

  Step 5

  Once it's dried, make a hole with a gimlet. Be patient and do not force it because you can break it. It takes a while...

• 

  Step 6

  Insert a piece of wire and make a loop on the top to hang the pendant.

• 

  Step 7

  Fill the shell with hot glue. Make sure the wire is covered by the glue to avoid losing it. Let it dry.

  Paint the glue with something. I used black nail polish cause the blue one was not dark enough.

• 

  Step 8

  Finally, add a ring and put a leather cord through it.

  Welcome to the Blue Öyster Cult!

  To set yourself in the right mood, listen The Congregation by Alice Cooper... :p (not the best song in the world but quite funny)

  Yes! I finally made something with a shell!
