Cascading Mobiles
This fun cascading mobile constructed of hand-painted wooden fish and bamboo was the very first sea life theme gift we ever received from friends. We have thoroughly enjoyed having it hung in the wide opening that connects our living room and kitchen area for many years, and almost everyone comments about it when they see it.

Wind Chimes
Another fun item we like to buy or receive as a gift, because we collect them, are wind chimes. Ceramic, metal, shell, and chimes made of other materials placed in a garden, or by a window of the house where you can see and hear the wind chime tinkling in the breeze is very soothing and enjoyable.

Sun Catchers
Made of many types of materials from simple plastic, to metal sculptures with a crystal attached to catch the sun, to intricately pieced together stained-glass window art, a sun catcher can be hung in any window for viewing enjoyment, and are ideal for bringing a little sunshine into a room. For even more fun, why not give a do-it-yourself sun catcher kit.
 

Wind Socks & Decorative Flags
Fun wind socks similar to this unique 5 foot long Hawaiian State Fish Humu-humu-nuku-nuku-apua-a design from the Big Wind Kite Factory on the island of Moloka'i, Hawai'i, which is hand-crafted by the owners Jonathan and Daphne Socher, can be hung in a garden or anywhere outside the house. Beautiful decorative seascape flags are another item that can be hung outside or placed inside a window to brigthen up any room.
