- Опубликовано: 7 май 2022
- This week we again search for something new. We visit a beach that is the only place in Britain you can find certain exotic shells. There are many cowries and exotic shells that have come across from the Caribbean on the gulf stream. Come with us on a search for the rare and unusual in a beautiful place!
If you would like to watch us use some of the shells in miniature crafting pop over to our new second channel `The Miniature World Of Kit + Caboodlers` -

We also have a Ko-fi account, so if you wanted to support us by buying us a metaphorical cup of coffee it would be greatly appreciated xx

#MUDLARKING
Please don’t apologize for mentioning the doll’s house. That is part of who you are and what you love. I wish I could take you to my California beaches for shells and fossils. And Oh! How I would love to come there!!!💝
Thank you :) :)
Totally agree
Fun to see people who get as excited over seashells as I do! 🐚🐚🐚
Happy Mothers Day to all mothers out there!
I'm here for the "It's a bead!" and "For the dollhouse!" exclamations. Please don't stop. Oh, those tiny sand dollars! 😍🐚
It's a joy to watch mother and daughter really enjoying what they are doing together
Thank you :)
I adore micro shelling and you two are great at it. I also love the flat scallop, the limpets and the tiny sand dollars. Thank you!
'For the doll house' is totally appropriate, that's your passion and so fun to see you realize your vision.
Totally agree
This video has a special place in my heart. My dad was in the US Army during WWII. He was stationed in the Philippines and brought home many shells. As children, we would enjoy looking through them, as a special occasion, to entertain us during snowy winter's days. Thank you for that trip down memory lane!
You are very welcome :)
The video was truly an unexpected delight. Who knew those shell finds were possible in the UK?! Not this Canadian. I now have a new obsession with tusk shells.
Tusk shells are very beautiful :)
Loving your whimsical doll houses the shell's are going to be a great addition.
Thank you :)
Love how they used the mini mussel shells in the doll house!
I love your doll house and watching you both create beautiful things you’ve found. Don’t stop!!!
Thank you :)
I adore your dollhouse projects. I mentioned you on Instagram- more people should watch your channel. I also make miniatures. You're inspirational. Soothing and magical videos I adore them all.
What a lovely day at the beach and all the lovely tiny shells, a joy to watch! Soo looking forward to the dresser tomorrow 😊
Ahhh, I like the “Dollhouse” usage!
I think you should make a shell framed mirror for the dolls house!
I agree with everyone else, love hearing about your finds for crafts or the dollhouse. Be who you are, that is why we love you girls!
We are planning a lot of shell ideas :)
Totally agree
Miss Kate, you are the Charlie Dimmock of mudlarking with your long, wild, flowing auburn locks! Another excellent video, ladies. Be well from Washington state USA ❤️
The tiny pot of mussels is adorable.
We love dolls house❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful location so much fun
The tinies are the most precious. 😊
Great shells ladies 🐚🐚🐚 I loved the mussels in the pot.💕💕💕🎎🎎🎎
Totally agree
My favourite familly. Oscar is getting so big now. Great video.
That large snail with the zig-zag striping may be a Gaudy Nautica. Also, check to see if the bubble shell glows under a UV light. The tiny tritons and topsnails are beautiful.
Thank you for the info we will :)
I can't believe how many times my mouth dropped open looking at all the wonderful things you found today. Thank you for sharing with us. I always enjoy watching. Happy Mother's day to you Fleur. Bless you all.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Happy mother's day Fleur. Beautiful shells. Good to see Oscar again. 🥰
Thank you :)
Wow what beautiful cliffs your surrounded by. Excellent video. Thank you, love Fleur's gloves! 🙋🌞
Thank you Georgia :)
the scenery in the water so beautiful
The tusk shells make me think of furniture legs , like on coffee tables, ottomans or stools . Loved this video, and don’t apologize for mentioning the dolls house. ❤
I can think of a couple of mudlarking channels where they say crafts over and over and over again. So don't worry about mentioning doll houses. I think it's brilliant that you're using these teeny tiny natural treasures for something that can appeal to so many people. It's just fun to watch you guys find anything on the beach or in a dump.
Ahh thank you :)
I live in south africa so for u to go so extreme over shells is so weird. But I love the excitement. Kate u have the best mother in the workd. Luv u gaks❤️🇿🇦
Totally agree
Oh wow I thought sand dollars and sea urchin's were completely different critters : ) your finds were fantastic, love all the history of the Cowie shells an loved this beach trip!
Or.... jeese the ideas are flowing tonight...or chandeliers with the shells ... keep an open mind or... miniature shadow box of shells. . Thankyou so much for making my weekends I know you work so hard to put these videos out and your well worth top compensation for all your hard work.
Thank you :)
I thought I recognised the beach and then you did the sea view shot at the end and it is indeed where I thought it was. We scattered my mums ashes over the cliff as that is her favourite place and she loved shell hunting with us as kids. I am also going back the first week of June and can't wait to hunt shells there.
It is very beautiful :)
Hi, what is this beach located in the UK would love to go and visit. Thanks x
Ohhh you need good eyes for this kind of Larking 🔍 😮 Some absolutely beautiful shells you have found. Plenty of craft material on this beach for your bottom draw 🙌
OMG 😱 that sand dollar so tiny! Our sand dollars on the Texas Gulf are about 1-4 “ big!
Don’t forget to make sea shell wind chimes for the doll house! Great video ladies. 🦋
Happy belated mums day fluer. From the states . You've raised such a lovely daughter ! My suggestion for the tusk shell ...lol. if you come accrossed any miniature elephant heads glue them on and place them on a wall in the doll house assuming the father of your victorian doll house is a proper hunter . As so many men love to brag on their hunting of Big" game . Big chuckle . Not advocating the hunting of such a beautiful animal.! But Its for make believe people. This is a humble worthy dollhouse!!! Love you all.
You found some lovely shells 🥰
A shell fireplace for the doll’s house, would be pretty…
Oh, I agree!
Most amazing shells please go back☺️
Loved the shells . I collected tiny shells when living in Florida a while back . Once
found a tiny living Octopus in a tiny shell. What a treat ! Let it go in a tidal pool in its
shell quite near the tide line so it would not
get stranded on dry shore .
The cowrie shells could maybe be used
as eggs in a wire basket on a table if you
like . a little wire woven chicken shaped
egg basket would be lovely and fun to
make maybe . Thanks for sharing . Anne

That sounds so cute! :)
You could put the tiny shells around a small piece of mirror for the dolls house. The larger shells with the nipple on top could be used as a lamp shade. I just love watching your videos everyday! Love you girls!
What are gorgeous idea!
So lovely!! The puffy sand dollars here on the east coast of North Carolina we call those sea biscuits and the flat ones sand dollars.
I live on the east coast of NC also. I love finding cool shells.
Some lovely little shells. the only cowrie shells i find are the big ones on bottle dumps.. stay safe.. V.R..
We find those too :)
Fantastic video, I just love the tiny shells, I have a big cowrie shell it's a brown and white spotty one, and you can mention the dolls house as much as you want, I can't wait to see what you make with the shells 😊
Enchanting tiny works of God’s creativity.
love hearing your plans for the dollhouse!! I can just see it in my minds eye..what an incredible beach!! So happy for you having your camper van to explore!! absolutely love you..I look forward to seeing you every week..pure 😊
Enjoyed greatly. I have a large box of shells that are beautiful
The nipple shells are limpets, they would make cute ceiling light or wall decor for the doll house, especially the ones with the holes in the center 😊... the pot of oyster/clam shells are adorable. ❤
There are always naysayers who can't see the wonder in things the way you do. I feel sorry for them, they've lost the childlike magic.Please don't apologize, everything you do is wonderful,keep your peckers up! P.s earlier this year I almost died of COVID-19,in fact a couple of chaps on the ward with me didn't make it unfortunately. I spent my time watching your chanel and loved it instantly, it helped me considerably,it helped my recovery enormously, so you'll always have a place in the heart of this old git.
We are so sorry to hear about your experience but very happy you are here to tell the tale and pleased our films helped in a way :) :)
Amazing and exotic
I've never seen such a small sand dollar. Along the Texas Gulf coast ours are the size of your hand with your fingers stretched out. If you break them open, they have tiny bird shaped bones in them that we called Doves.
That is such a lovely name! :)
where on the gulf coast are you? i grew up in houston, galveston. i was last there around 15 years ago, and there were no seashells at all on galveston, in a mile i found a single broken sand dollar. there were always less whole seashells every year since i was a child 50+ years ago, but to find none at all was terrifically sad and unexpected.
one reason i love these videos; they really know how to practice the art of cherishing, don't they?
and there's always the cat, Sunny.
When I was in Texas I found a sanddollar the size of a 50 cent piece. It was really perfect. I am a collector.
Those are amazing unusual shells, I didn't realize we had those in this country. They were a good find. Thank you for sharing and have a good week
I love your hat Fleur! The shells are amazing. I watch a channel SWF southwest Florida shelling. It comes out every Sunday afternoon. She’s very educational. The cowry shell is rare there and much much bigger than the shells you found but, I believe you found a mini Apple Murex . So much fun. See you later!🙋♀️
I watch that one too!
Thank you I knitted it myself :) We will have to check out that channel :)
Swf is an amazing channel informative and so relaxing. I was recommended your channel as I watch swf, loving the dollhouse lovely to see mother and daughter having a hobby together. Can you advise which beach in the UK this is please as I would love to go, I love shelling, I've just got back from florida where I found some amazing shells.
😍The 'nipple shells' is called Limpet and are one of my favorites to find along the Washington & Oregon coast. This episode was so much fun and very informative. As other people have said, don't apologize for saying something that you love, like doll house, because we love what you love and love watching your adventures. Thank you for taking us along with you. 💚💙
Thank you for watching :)
Totally agree
Luv the shell 🐚 hunt. Your dolls house is amazing and worth talking about. When u do it gets me excited about your future creations. Happy hunting
I would be in heaven.
Wonderful beautiful finds love the doll house keep building🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖💖💖
🤔could there be a better way to spend Mothers day?☝️I think not.😊Happy Mothers Day!💖👍😎🙂
A beautiful beach for beautiful people who bring joy in this troubled world. Fantastic variety of shells, shapes and markings. Mother Nature’s design studio is unbeatable!! Sue and Ian, Australia
Thank you so much :)
Totally agree
Really cute shells, love everything, you don't need to apologise for anything xx
Today is Mothers Day in the US..Happy Mothers Day Mum!!
Thank you :)
I collected many years ago, almost 3o years ago now, a collection of shells just like the ones you collected here. I've often wondered what the horn ones were called. Thanks for the name. I still have the collection on show in a pretty glass box which lets all the shells to be seen. They still are as pretty as the day i found them. Natural treasures.
A lovely days Larking ladies. X
You are very welcome :)
Conch
The brown lily shaped shell looks like pottery, and would look good on a wall as a candle sconce or wall pocket for teeny little flowers. I love your dollhouse, mention it as much as you want!
Lovely idea :)
Another beautiful beach 💛
I loved this 🐚 I would love to go there
Totally agree
I would love to take some of these adventures with you guys.
It's on my bucket list
Totally agree
Wow!!! I have , since I was little, picked up seashells& sea grasses!! I take it for granted! I go 5 minutes from my home!!!! Nan
Love the beautiful trip to the beach! I was going to suggest that you use the tusk shells as legs of a table.
I was thinking about using them for a chandelier or some kind of a lighting shade?!🤷🏻♀️
I think most people that watch your videos are all ready thinking of what you can do with the shells for your doll house, so really you don't say doll house too much, grin!
:) :) :)
wowie...all those shells...they are my favorites.....thanks for bringing us there..take care.🌻🍀
Beautiful location with the amazing rock formations. Lovely beach. 🌻🌿🥰🐕🇺🇸
You could make a lot of unicorns with those tusk shells! The bigger round shell, is a moon snail shell called a gaudy nautica. I also saw a couple of limpet shells and at least one top snail shell. Great haul!
Do not apologize for saying 'dollhouse'! It it charming that you can see things that can be made to look like something for your doll house! Keep telling us so we can look for them later too. I was happy to see Oscar at the end of the video. It is always a treat to see all three of you. I love you videos so much! They are highlights to my days! Thank you! Please be careful and stay safe! ❤❤
Totally agree
Thank you so much :)
I’m a shell collector and loved this video!! Sad to say I have never found a cowrie or tusk shell! Great video!!!💞
Hope you find one, one day :)
As a beachcomber this ones right up my alley .
Agreed can not be a beachcomber without a love of shells :)
That was really fun. I like that we get to both see you find the items and then get to see you use them in your crafting. I enjoy both aspects very much. Thank you for taking the effort to film everything so we can enjoy it all with you. :-)
I have been frustrated at not seeing enough seashells on mudlarking channels. OK, today was amazing. I was frustrated again, but this time at not being able to be there with you. I could easily have used a shovel and bucket to do collecting there. I love the tusk shells. Kate, I too have looked high and low for a wentletrap. They are so scarce here on the Washington coast of America. I haven't found one in the many years of searching I have done. I hope you find one there. One of my very favorite shows! Bravo!!
Hi Kerry. There are RUclips channels devoted exclusively to shell hunting, such as 'Salty Reflections'. You could probably OD on shells if you watched them all. LOL
It is difficult here as we don`t have that many interesting shells, that is why it was so amazing to visit this beach. Thank you :) :)
Thanks ladies! I always enjoy your videos! So enjoying the the other channel too!💕💕WV🇺🇸
The scenery is beautiful. And I love your other channel.
Thank you so much for your lovely calming videos! Hunting shells on the beach is one of my favorite things, but since I live in the middle of a continent I have to be satisfied with finding fossil ones most of the time. Watching you find all those beautiful shells is just lovely!
Thank you for watching :)
Oscar is certainly growing!
Happy Mother's Day
I look for shells around 4 times a week.... this was a lovely change but I do love your mudlarking videos the best :)
Beautiful shells I love them all even if imperfect
Don’t apologise for talking about your dolls house, i love to hear your idea’s on how your going to use the things you pick up, plus your very passionate on the great dolls house. My daughter does miniature rooms too. Take care and thank you for sharing. Love your second channel too, so it’s great to see so many videos 👍👏❤️
Thank you :)
How lovely! I recognize some of these shells from our beaches, this side of the Atlantic…especially the sand dollars! ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Fantastic shells! I love shelling, only ever found one beach with wentletraps on.
Such astonishing variety! I would be hours...
Never never never apologize for mentioning the doll's house . . . it is a wonderful project that makes everyone, well, me . . . happy and impatient to see. Something you both can be proud of. I miss having access to the ocean . . . England was once my home (still is, but . . .). All the best (Ann, Canada)
Thank you :)
Totally agree
So...so....so....schön.
Sende liebe Muttertagsgrüsse😊
Thank you.
Love from the old lady in Texas USA God bless you always and forever
What a beautiful location, when you freeze the frame over those shells, the colour and patterns are so beautiful, art in nature, great place.
They are like jewels :)
I loved this video! I’ve just got home from my caravan in Anglesey and excluding the tusk shells, your shells are the same species as we find there. Thank you so much for taking us with you.
I can honestly say I never knew all those different shells could be found on some of our beaches. I love the strange names for them and how pretty some of them are. Really loved your video thank-you xx
Some of the names are wonderful:)
Yes aren't they just
What a delightful video. Thanks for sharing.
Loving your rain jacket
Wonderful shells, thank you for sharing
That beach is amazing 😍😍
The small shells are great! Almost a therapy
Michigan rocks put sand under a hand-held digital microscope, it was a very pleasant surprise
Just think of the tiny sailor's valentines you could make! The absolutely smallest shells I've ever found were baby whelks from inside a string of egg cases. Such tiny marvels!
Funny enough we have made a tiny shell box for the dolls house :)
