This fairy light will remind you of the beach: it's adorned with a collection of clattering clam shells. Reusing shells that have been randomly collected from the beaches, the House clam lights string together 50 un-manipulated clam shells.

The light is 5-meters-long with speckles of white light bulbs. Each LED light is disguised in a clam sea shell -- diffusing the light to appear subtle. Clam shells add a nice rustic feel to the light, and are suitable for indoors or outdoors. The fairy lights come in two versions: battery-powered or plug-in. Because the clam shells used are hand-picked, each fairy light will be unique. This piece would be perfect for anyone reminiscent of a summery, sandy beach.
