This past weekend we had family visiting us here in Tampa, Florida and we decided we needed to make a quick trip over to Madeira Beach.
Down there, there is an area called “John’s Pass” that is full of tourist gift shops right on the water and boardwalk.
Of course I “had” to do some shopping of my own and I came across these awesome Beach Themed Starfish Ornaments.
One thing lead to another {and several came home with me} but I figured this was an awesome idea that had to be shared on Glued To My Crafts.
YOU can easily recreate these with ease and save yourself the tourist price {ha!} All you need is some starfish {which can be found at Michaels} some craft paint and some plastic embellishments to pull it together. Best part? You can customize them to fit a style, personality or even the time of year {like Christmas colors!}
Then make a whole family of them in one sitting or personalize them to represent YOU!
I have plans to keep these two as my husband and I & grab a smaller starfish to make myself, to represent my son. This year I’m doing a “beach themed” Christmas tree so these will fit in nicely and have that personal touch as well!
Although it’s not my original idea – I still hope it sparks some creativity in YOU! And with Christmas right around the corner, maybe you can knock some gift making off your to-do list as well!
Happy crafting, my friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts

Hi Donna – I’m not quite sure but these from Amazon might work –> https://amzn.to/2BpzCct
I didn’t personally buy the small sunglasses since they came on the ornament already. I just typed in small sunglass buttons on Amazon and the link came up :-) Hope that helps – Stacey
