Came VERY WELL packaged. No problems. I'm not a crafty person, but went to Walmart and purchased gold, copper and teal green metallic paints.  Poured out spots on a paper plate and 
grabbed an old sock and just started dabbing and rubbing. I put the gold on the lowest third, the
copper in the middle and teal on the top. It turned out beautiful.They have a nice shine like live
fish and change colors depending on where the light hits them. Easy to hang and very lightweight.
Well made. Only wish I had found them sooner.

Pros: Great value, lightweight, sturdy, easy to paint
Cons: NONE
