Around my parents' house, and pretty much any house anywhere with palm trees, you can find palm debris everywhere- especially the empty seed pods. Once they dry out in the hot Florida sun, they are perfect canvases!

Pick your pods- they need to be pretty straight; curves can make it hard for you to hang them.

Paint your fish! Use any colors, make it a barracuda or a seahorse! You may think the shape is constricting to the type of fish you can paint, but it's not at all.

Spray the finished fish with clear gloss to protect it if you're hanging it outside.

Using hot glue, attach the craft broom handle to the end of the fish-pod. Then, wrap twine around the end to cover any seams and to make it look a little more craft-y.

Hang, and enjoy!
