Art for Everyone, Made in Beaufort

Floral retail and design to a fun filled Studio

It all started way back — with a need to be creative and art being my favorite subject throughout my school years. I was prompted to join a vocational school (S.W.O.V.E.C) in my high school years and became a student of Floral retail and design. For a career I became a floral designer and store manager and enjoyed the industry for many years.  In 2018 we moved from Michigan to the Beaufort area where I fell in love with all the natural wonders and treasures that surrounded me. Right away being so inspired I began collecting  piles of shells along with other natural treasures in hopes of creating some incredible art some day. I also discovered that I was equally fascinated with glass and started learning of the different art forms and discovered that glass and tile mosaics were a lot of fun to me along with glass fusion.

Shards & Shells was born 2026— Now a real studio, in a real space at the Freedman Art district at 1407 King street Beaufort, SC 29902 with plans in the works of having  real classes for real people of all skill levels.

We would like to share and create a space right here in the heart of Beaufort, SC where all ages can explore their creative side.  Where adults can take a break from the daily work to play and connect in a fun creative space.   Molly Weatherly Owner and Resident artist 2026
