See how metallic gold spray paint on seashells adds some glamour to a beach-inspired centerpiece.

  1. Make sure shells are clean and completely dry before painting. Shake your can of Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Metallic Spray Paint, shown here in the color Gold Rush, for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Hold your spray paint can 10-16” from the shells and apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart. Recoat within an hour or after 48 hours.
  2. Scatter painted shells around vases filled with sand and shells for an easy and elegant coastal beach centerpiece!
