Shell Pearl Love

What type of crab ‘dresses up’ with bits of debris and things it finds?
I once saw a BBC David Attenborough documentary about some type of crab that dresses up with bits of debris and things it finds. The scene was based on a shipwreck, and the crab was ornating it’s shell with bits of a pearl necklace it had found! Would love to find the name of this crab and Wiki it, but can’t remember what it was called. Any ideas?
It is called a decorator crab and it is related to the kelp crab. I’ve seen a number of them off the North coast of CA!
