Feel the sand between your toes!

By RedTulip from New York on 9/2/2010

Pros:

Attractive Design

Best Uses:

Front door

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

I keep this on the front door during August -- our big vacation month. The color scheme gives the wreath a very cool feel, like the beach early in the morning. Not only does it look like the beach, but it feels like it too - it has a very stiff and hard texture to it. While I do agree with other reviewers that the packaging was just a bit too tight, I have not had any of the shells come off.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

I was really pleased with the wreath...and it looks great in my bathroom with my whole sea motif. My only gripe is the way it was packaged....very poor. Lots of loose shells and dried flowers were in the box.

Poor Quality

By shell shopper

from Connecticut on 3/20/2009

Pros:

Attractive Design

Cons:

Poor Quality

Describe Yourself:

Midrange Shopper

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

My wreath came with about 6 shells in the box that fell off [...]. And, a lot of the remaining shells pull right out (glued on). The box is tight fit, so some flowers came off too. Very disappointed because I like the design.

Beachcomber Wreath

By Cindy F.

from Indianapolis on 1/31/2009

Gift:

Pros:

Attractive Design, Durable, Pretty colors

Describe Yourself:

Midrange Shopper

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

The Beachcomber Wreath was the perfect wall accent for our lake house. The colors are very pretty. The price was inexpensive and I think the quality is excellent. The starfish are plastic but look real from about five feet away and they will probably outlast the real thing. I love the wreath!

Loved the wreath! Packaging not great.

By Dreaming of Jeannie

from New Jersey on 11/25/2007

Pros:

Attractive Design, Easy To Install

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

This wreath was an excellent addition to my seashell themed bathroom. The only complaint I had was the packaging. The wreath was too big for the box. So, the wreath was a tad bent. Not so noticeable. But still bent and could not fix.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

Beautiful piece

It was cute. But I did not like ...

By Judy C.

from Redondo Beach, California on 8/22/2007

Pros:

It was cute but small

Cons:

Plastic starfish

Best Uses:

Kitchen

Describe Yourself:

Stylish

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

It looked larger and very natural in the cataloge. I installed it on my front door but it looked miniature. So I hung it in my breakfast nook area. I was complimented on it. However, it encouraged me to make a more impressive wreath from my front door with all natural shells, starfish, etc. This probably would have been a lot nicer had you included real starfish. I took the plastic ones off and installed my own. Great improvement. But then again I live at the Beach!

Practical

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

Some shells had already fallen off when I took the wreath out of the box. After hanging the wreath on the door, the shells began to fall off due to the hot glue melting from the sun. The wreath is attractive, however, I was truly disappointed that it does not stay together.

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Beachcomber Wreath:

Beautiful wreath. Tip: Natural green and dried flowers are typically fragile. I sprayed my wreath with hairspray to give the dried greans/fowers extra stability. (I use this method on most of my wreaths and what a difference it makes in preserving the beauty)
