| Hmmm. You could take them down to the Krusty Crab and buy yourself some crabby patties! LOL Sorry. I was trying to think of something but have not a creative bone in my body right now. I think sand dollars are so pretty though. They always make me think of the legend of the sand dollar which makes me think Christmas...ornaments maybe? |

| I bet those were really pretty. Sand dollars are so pretty anyway that I can imagine them as ornaments. |

| My mom did this for my kids and I still have them She used red satin ribbon for the hanger and they were so pretty. I think she sprayed them with a clear acrylic spray paint to preserve them somewhat.

| I came home with a bag of seashells from a visit at my friend's house. I put them in a glass dish on display. When I look at them I think of my best friend! Maybe you could put your sand dollars on display someplace in the house. |

| how about a sand dollar wreath? Use a foam or straw form and glue the sand dollars to it.. add shells or other "filler" You could do it natural for a beach theme Good luck btw.. I cheated.. I Google crafts with sand dollars and saw the wreath idea.lol

| hmmm, let's see: wreath, like Lis Sis suggested, glue around a mirror, glue around a picture frame - I know you have a few pictures of cutie Layla boating a mobile with fishing line, and something I saw with seashells - tie several strings of them on long ribbon or fishing line and make a window valance. You can string straight across, or shape the valance on an arc. I've always thought this was so pretty. Good luck.

My mom also made her bathroom an ocean theme. So she glued shells randomly around her mirrors, on soap dispenser, to the plastic around her light switch, on the shower curtain hangers, the end of her towel racks. It's really pretty.
