Lauren said...

I would make my own wreath, or use them in jars or vases :)

Jane said...

Christmas is coming...I'd use the starfish on our "Florida" tree by incorporating them on my shell garland. After the holidays, the garland would move into our guest room...draped over the landscape burlap valances.

I love the wreath but also love starfish propped up in a window or on a bookshelf, so I'd put them in every room of the house to spread some beach cheer around to everyone in my family. If I had any left over, I would tie them to gifts using some natural-colored raffia.

Sherine said...

I've been wanting to frame some of them in shadow box frames and get creative with backgrounds and mats, etc. I also love to place them on shelves and in random places throughout my home. I would study the other options/ideas online and get creative! My 5 year old granddaughter and I would have a blast together!

Well, I would use them to bring my Seascape art 3D. I purchased an 8x8 Birch Picture frame from Ikea, kept the white matte intact. Used Black / White pinstripe scrapbook paper as a base (under matte), and over the TOP of the glass I glued a white starfish (centered). I will post another picture on the Completely Coastal page for all to see. Thanks!

Chrissy said...

I would use them in my wedding decorations for next summer that I am currently in the progress of making :)

Shirley said...

Since I'm thinking of purchasing a house in Florida soon, I could make this adorable wreath for my door. Great giveaway.

Such a pretty pretty wreath! I would love to make one, or string them in a garland to go with my beachy Christmas theme, or set each one on the wall between the shells and corals above my kitchen cabinets!

Love Starfish- Could do so many fun things! Can't just pinpoint just one! I'm super filled with Holiday Cheer already, so I'd imagine it'd be something Christmas related.

Seashells and starfish are just like Christmas trees- YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MANY! This year in our house there will be a tree just for our shells! These starfish will only add to the beauty of something that only an awesome Creator could have made!! I have truly enjoyed Completely Coastal's site on FB... way more fun than the usual gossip :) !! and I am not just saying that because its a give away its the truth!

Annette Mastron said...

Love the color of the door and the perfect wreath for a redo with a beachy theme. Hoping I win, if so rain, snow, sleet or whatever the starfish wreath could be found on my front door that I would need to repaint for the proper beachy look. Thanks

Rebecca Quinlan said...

I already have that colander....all ready for the starfish.

Jacqueline said...

The door is wonderful. That is the most soothing color around. If I won, I would take them to my home in Cabo and put them in a beautiful glass container to show them off.

Come visit and join my giveaway for a Williams Sonoma Copper Soup Pot. It end Thursday at midnight.

CereusArt said...

I'd use the starfish to make Christmas Ornaments. I've shared the giveaway on twitter and facebook.

Sandy said...

In my Cape May beach house, I have starfish sitting on top of every picture frame, mirror, window, bathroom ledge and bed. I also have a large martini glass full of starfish that I give away to guests that come visit. SandyStarfish! sandyjj3@gmail.com

Sunny K West said...

I also tweeted and shared with two friends. I would make a garland out of them. I have been wanting to do that for a while but I couldn't find them anywhere in my neighborhood.

~Tammy~ said...

Beautiful wreath! I have a fireplace in my new home that needs these for accents as well as add them to a few shelves I have! I might try and get crafty and make my own wreath! Looks AMAZING!

Kitten said...

I would love to win the gorgeous starfish. We moved from Southern CA to *shudder* Ohio 7 years ago to help my Mom & I really NEED all the beachy beauty I can surround myself with.
I would put some in bowls, hang some from a lovely sea colored hand dyed ribbon...and just sprinkle them around as much as I could.

dorkieyorkie said...

I've been wanting to make some new valances for my bedroom using the starfish as tiebacks. I also would like to make a mirror and possibly a lamp to decorate additional areas of the house. We are ocean lovers and scuba divers and love to surround ourselves with anything that reminds us of our favorite place.

Beautiful Details said...

Congrats to Shari for the feature in Coastal Living! How exciting! Her wreath is beautiful! How I would love to have that door on my house! It's just perfect and Shari's wreath makes it complete.

Erin said...

I LOVE the wreath but I am thinking Christmas Tree ornaments. Barring that, I love the way they look sitting in a bowl.

Erin :)

michelle said...

Lisa @ akawest said...

I would definitely make the wreath. It is gorgeous!

Carolyn said...

I would make a small garland with some and prop others around the house--in jars or bowls. I would also frame one in a whitewashed frame.

Katie Franck said...

lydiatorres said...

I would love to tie them on Christmas lights with raffia and hang them around my bedroom. How romantic and fun since I am now living on a beach in Texas.

All the ideas sound so good! Probably on the sideboard in the dining room with all the other shells. Or maybe in one of the jars of shells. Love the wreath too though. bettywade@windstream.net
