Crabs
One of my oldest collections, this is still a favourite one. It came from a summer collecting these beautiful creatures (that had been washed up on the shoreline) with my (then very little) children searching for ‘the one’. We had a very smelly ‘Celebrations’ tub full of our finds. After some weeks I eventually found my crab washed up on the beach in St Leonards, East Sussex. The crab in all it’s intricate beauty, lives on in it’s own collection and my children are so very grown up now.
