Starfish

Particularly among the young, Starfish are the most popular creatures when you go tide pooling!  They may well be the most unusual well known creatures.  They have no front or back and can move in any direction without turning.  Rather than using muscles to move their hundreds of tiny legs, starfish use a complex hydraulic system to move around or cling to rocks.  They can move quite gracefully across a surface.

The Paper Birch, slender and elegant, with its intensely white bark, is visible even in the dark of night. The tough outer wrapping of the tree is the bark from which American Indians fashioned their strong, lightweight bark canoes. These Native Americans, as well as early colonists and European herbalists, all agreed that birch leaves were therapeutic and all prescribed them for many disorders. The leaves and twigs of some birches boast a spicy aroma and are used to make scented oil. Because of their singular beauty, they have been designated National Memorial Trees for Mothers and as such were planted on the Capitol grounds in Washington, DC.

Our Birch Leaf Ornament is available in either a bright silver (as shown) finish or a green gold over copper finish.
