The other problem would be, when you go to smash up seashells they turn either into powder or sharp shards... (I live in Florida so experienced).
I've used the ones with holes in em as branch weights (use a s shaped hook of wire and hang shell off small branch), I've also covered the top of soil with em as a moisture holder. although the bugs liked to hide under them. I've also used nasty looking ones as drain hole covers for plants that like wet feet. Plus I have one of those clear lamps full of them.. oh wait, that's not for bonsai LOL.

Hope you had a good time!
