How lovely! As part of my husband’s recovery from cancer treatment he walks the beach and has taken to collecting sea glass. I have several tubs now colour coded awaiting inspiration of what to make with it. I’m going to put some in a clear case as you suggest here ❤️

Sea glass collecting certainly feels important to wellbeing.. 🔸🙏♦️🔶💎🌊

What a lovely idea! They look great. I would definitely wear a piece of jewellery like that.

My personal rule is that I only wear jewellery that means something to me, I prefer it not to be generic. But to be fair, I don't get dressed up very often - if I did I might think differently! So I love crystal jewellery - which looks very similar to what you've created with the sea glass.

Thank you Melissa. I love crystals too. 💎

Gorgeous work, Daisy! 💞 I've not yet met the sea, but I do collect fascinating stones that cross my path.

Thank you Dawn. I love collecting stones too. I use them at the side of my pond for the frogs or put them in a shallow tray for the bees to sit on whilst they drink.

So pretty, well done! Being in the middle of the country, I don't get to see much sea glass, but it is quite enchanting! I wonder what all that glass used to be?

We had lots of glass factories in these coastal parts, they used to dump the bits they didn't want in the sea. Yesterday's pollution, today's art.

I absolutely adore sea glass. I cannot count the number of hours in my life I have spent walking beaches to find sea glass. I love it so much that I named one of my publications Jumble of Sea Glass.

I love your sea glass creations. Keep going!

I love sea glass too. It is a thing of wonder isn't it. So much patient transformation. I enjoyed helping it with its next transformation. What is you favourite colour of glass?

JL Orr | Paradox & Sea Glass's avatar

My favourite colour for everything is purple — I have yet to find purple sea glass but I would dearly love to!

I found some pink once, that was a shock. I love the deep teal colours.

We have a lot of sea glass here in Rhode Island. I’ve never looked for it but seen many people with gorgeous pieces. What you made from them is so beautiful Daisy.

Daisy R. Birchwood's avatar

Thank you Jo-Ann. It was good to see the pieces in a different guise.

Fascinating. I don't think I've ever found any but that is probably because I wasn't looking for it. That will change now!

North Somerset beaches are supposed to be good for sea glass.

Thank you. When it stops raining over Easter we will visit!

I love seaglass. Thanks for this! I want to go out looking for more.

It can prove very fruitful once you are hooked. 🙂💎♦️
