Hereof, how do you stick shells to flower pots?
Glue your seashells to the side of the pot. Use your hot glue gun to put a dab of glue on the bottom of the shell then apply it to the pot. Once they are held in place, you'll want to reinforce the shells by using a stronger glue, like Gorilla or super glue, to hold the shells in place for the long run.
