1. Don't try to open out dry mussel shells, or they will come apart. Instead,     soak the shells in warm water overnight. Open them out gently and place     them face down on a board.
2. When the open shells have dried, paint the shells with magic touch. Turn     the shells over and paint the dark side. Let it dry.
3. When the magic touch have dried, decorate each one using Li'l Hands     Pearl or Poster paint. Make different patterns of butterflies. Repeat the     painting process at the back of the shells.
4. When it dries, mix Gold Medal White Glue to a small amount of water then     brush it onto the shell butterflies for a glossy finish. Set aside.
6. Knot the nylon thread on the BBQ stick then tie the other ends around the     shell butterflies. Arrange them at different heights.
