    Simple shells become vehicles to inspire, uplift

    Naples retiree Doris McGuire has found joy in giving and doing something she loves. She hosts and teaches classes on the pleasure of turning a beach find, a humble oyster shell, into a decorative object through the art of decoupage. Since last March, Mc-Guire has conducted 20 classes for 200 people at venues in Collier County, Bonita Springs and Fort Myers.
