The white wreath was my favorite.
Vicky says
I like the tree with the tiny shells! How did you get the shells to stay on the styrofoam?

I used a hot glue gun 🙂
Gail says
Where do you purchase inexpensive starfish and coral? Thanks.
Di Livingston says
I say have to say it isn’t cheap to do all that. Yes cheaper than buying it already done. Looks very nice. I do a Christmas Ocean Theme and this year I get to put it out. I am so excited as I has been 7 years because rotate my six theme’s. Currently I paint my tree aqua, then I am making a tree skirt Waiting on the ribbon to come. Made a flag with left over fabric and put a mermaid on it and waiting now for the glitter vinyl to finish it off. That tree I just put lei’s on it.

Love the aqua wreath.
Diane says
Love it all I do a coastal theme for christmas. I rotate my six theme’s one per year. Last time I had my costal theme out I spray painted an old tree I had that had no lights, I love it and love how it looks with the rest of my costal things. I do a white tree for each theme, but for that year it is costal.
