I ordered small starfishs from oriental trading, none of them were broke but they were really small. They had a very fishy odor, they are still on my back porch--dont know if I'm gonna use them b.c I dont want them stinkin up my suitcase!

WOW - I just priced an order thru Oriental Trading for starfish - my total order was $16.99 - they were going to charge $25.00 for shipping.

 

Bummer, I can't find anything in Canada.

I got my order TWO days after I ordered it! And I am not kidding you when I say NOT A SINGLE STARFISH WAS BROKEN! There is 25 perfect sugar starfish now waiting for me to make my aisle decorations!

 

 

 

I really only needed about 10 of these, but I was keeping the thought in the back of my head that what if I only got lucky the first time I ordered from them and there not always that perfect. I was wrong.. again! These do have a tiny bit of an odor to them though. I just cut the bags open and stuck em in my garage and they're already smelling better!

PVBride2010-sorry to hear that I was really worried about that too. Read the reviews on oriental trading companys shells and everyone complained of them stinking really bad. The ones I got from this place do not have an odor at all and there is 100 of them in each bag.

 

Negrilbridetoo- All the shells I saw at Wal Mart and the local craft stores had been picked thru and only the broken ones were left. I got desperate and decided to take my chances ordering off the internet.

 

Indy_chic-Im not sure how much shipping would cost you from this place, but I know they are located in Florida. My shipping was about $8 and I live in Florida.

This is exactly what I was looking for. My brother travels to the US for work so I'm going to have these shipped to his workplace. He's gonna hate me ... but whatever ....

awesome idea, I'm going to copy it! WHere did you get your string stuff?

[Island Bride]

Jeninesmom- I actually bought my curly raffia at our local craft store, Hobby Lobby.

 

Sunandsand- You truly will not regret ordering from this place. They rock!

 

Here is a picture of my practice one:

 

 

Its a little messy cuz everyone was tugging and pulling at it to see if they hot glue would really hold up.

This place is awesome! I just placed my order today and I can't wait to get everything in! We're having a very small wedding so I didn't need as much as others, but still, can't wait! AND, very reasonably priced

[Island Bride]

Hoyt75- I agree! They were very well priced! But unfortunate for you.. the more you order the CHEAPER they are! Wow, i see your wedding is 2 weeks away! Good Luck girl! Hope everything goes as planned!
