The one I made and have in my bathroom is a straw wreath, I wrapped a 2 inch
wide blue calico ribbon around, sort of like stripes of ribbon and straw for
the wreath, and then made a big bow.
I then glued down the sea shells etc. on the front of the wreath on top of
the straw and ribbon.

I took a styrofoam cone and covered in sea shells!
