Holiday's at the Sea Decorations

Wednesday, November 30, 2011

A few week's ago I posted on some Sea-Worthy Holiday decorations, a few I made last year and a few I plan to try my hand at this year.  I've slacked a bit on my plans, but hopefully this weekend the tree will be up and decorations started.


Over the Thanksgiving Holiday I partook in small business Saturday, trying to help out the business that were in the area I was in.  While in many of these stores I was inspired by a few of their Holiday decorations.  

Here's a few more Sea-Worthy decorations that you could make at home for your 'From the Sea' Holiday Tree


Sea Urchin Snowman

How cute is this little guy!  All you need are 3 Sea Urchins, try and get them in different sizes.  You can use a hot glue gun to stack them, large to small.  The rest is up to your creativity!  You can use a sharpie for the details, or try your hand at felt.  Another cute idea would be to use pom-poms for the buttons and hat.  Use a little ribbon or yarn to make his scarf.   Then glue a ribbon on the top in a loop to make the ornament. 




 Sea Shell Angel

I just love this little angel, and she's super easy to make.  Lucky for me, I'm close to the sea and can collect a bunch of shells, however most craft stores will carry a variety of shells.  This one really lets you play with different types of shells, to see what fits best.  Glue the wings to the body first, make sure the shell 'wings' are backwards.  Then glue the shell 'head' in place.  To cover any open areas, use small beading pearls and hot glue.  Then attach a looped ribbon to the back to make your ornament.  Add sparkles and paint if you'd like her to shine!
