It’s impossible to go to the beach with kids and not end up with a collection of rocks. Stephanie from The Silly Pearl wanted to turn her beach vacation memories into something tangible, so she turned the rocks her daughters collected on a recent trip into an ocean-inspired wreath.  If you aren’t near enough the water to collect stones yourself but want to add a touch of beachy feel to your decor, you can also use the bags of river rocks from Dollar Tree to get the same effect.   [how to make a summer beach wreath]
