Shell Garland

I have seen shell garlands in several places and I decided I wanted to create my own.

 I just started with a cotton rope and strung it up across the mantel. 

I used a jute rope and started tying the shells, starfish, and sand dollars in a pattern.

Each item had a feature about it that naturally you could tie the string to.  I didn't drill any holes to do this.
 

I plan to get a multi-season of uses out of this because I am going to try it in a coastal Christmas garland this winter.  

Thanks for stopping by!
