The Nix Hosts a Shell Frame Workshop with Iconic Christa South Seashells

At The Nix Palm Beach, we love celebrating the timeless charm and creative spirit of our coastal town—and our latest in-store event did just that. We were thrilled to host an intimate make-your-own shell picture frame workshop in collaboration with the iconic Christa South Seashells, a beloved Palm Beach staple known for her exquisite, hand-crafted shell designs.

A Celebration of Palm Beach Craftsmanship

For decades, Christa South has been synonymous with classic Palm Beach style. Her shells—carefully collected and meticulously arranged—capture the romance of the sea and the elegance of old-Florida design. Welcoming Christa into The Nix showroom felt like a natural pairing: two local businesses rooted in creativity, craftsmanship, and a deep love for Palm Beach.

Guests gathered in our bright, airy boutique to create their own custom shell picture frames, guided by Christa herself. Each attendee selected from a beautiful assortment of natural shells, learning techniques that transform simple materials into heirloom-worthy décor.

A Hands-On, Creative Experience

The workshop offered more than just a finished frame—it was a chance to slow down, get creative, and connect. Guests enjoyed a relaxed, social atmosphere while designing pieces that reflect their own memories of the coast. No two frames were alike, making each one a personal keepsake and a true expression of Palm Beach style.

Events like this are at the heart of what we do at The Nix: creating meaningful experiences that bring our community together while highlighting talented local artisans.
