I love this post too, Debbie! I saved some clam shells from a special dinner I made a few weeks ago, thinking that there was surely some other use for them - and this post has really given me food (or shells!) for thought.

My father in law comes from France and his family over there have walnut trees, so we never have a shortage of walnuts in our house! I use them for cooking from time to time, so next time I'm going to be careful about cracking the shells as I love these creative ideas - especially the mouse! My 3 year old and my nephew are going to have fun making mice together some day soon :)

I also liked the 'Ideas for recycling nut shells' link - the jewellery and noise-makers are a great idea, thanks Debbie!
