Sorting Sea Glass

Sorting sea glass is one of those things you have to do if you want to find pairs for making earrings. 
Like finding the fitting puzzle piece, it takes a lot of looking, time and patience. 

Just sorting through the blues and greens this time.

Do you see any pairs here? 

or here?

Very rarely do you find two identical pieces.

Do you like wire wrapped sea glass earrings?

 or 

Do you like drilled sea glass earrings?

Thanks for looking!

Beach Hike in February

Yesterday we went on a beach hike at Second Beach near La Push, WA.
It was a fairly decent day, and it was high time to get out and get some salty air into my lungs. The tide was out and so was the sun, sort of. It was more or less kind of hazy and mild. Main thing: no rain.

That's me sitting on a  big styrofoam float, possibly washed over from Japan.

"Hole in the Wall"

I found one piece of  beach glass.  This is how it looks in the sand before it was picked up (by me).

Finding a piece of  sea glass is always a good  reason to celebrate! 

 I haven't been making much sea glass lately, because I have been painting more.
I have also been making dreamcatchers, for which I have started a new blog dedicated just to that.
Some of them have beach glass worked into them.

Click here to find out more about this dreamcatcher with sea glass.It is available for purchase, BTW.

This heart shaped sun catcher with sea glass worked into it is available on Etsy.

Thanks for looking.
Now go shopping!

Walk to the River

Today I took a walk to the river to do a photo shooting of some of my wire wrapped sea glass. 

It was a lovely, sunny January day which is rare in the rain forest of Washington State.

These earrings are now available on Etsy.

You can purchase this suncatcher , too.

Two Beach Hikes in Two Days

We've been having cold and sunny weather here on the Olympic Peninsula.

Ice blue sea glass on ice.  Available for purchase from my Etsy shop.

The weather has been gorgeous. In the past two days I've been on two beach hikes.

Yesterday I hiked the beach between Clallam Bay and Sekiu. I found a quit a bit of sea glass, but alas, I didn't take pictures of the sea glass, just some beach shots. 

The beach between Clallam Bay and Sekiu

This afternoon we hiked Second Beach near La Push.
It was gloriously sunny.

Wire Wrapped Sea Glass Pendants

Yesterday I sat down and started wire wrapping. I was trying out a different technique of making a bale and frame first and then wrapping wire to hold the seaglass in place.

The next few photos show what I created.

This one is now available via my Etsy shop.
Hint: Click this link.

Its amazing how certain things show up when you take a picture of them. I guess its a way of being objective.
