Take A Look At Some Rare Finds!

I’ve been collecting beach sea glass for only about one year now and I absolutely adore it! When I first started I would get so excited and collect everything ending up with mostly browns. After awhile I started to skip the browns because while diving for a brown I would see a beautiful aquamarine or cobalt blue roll away into the sea!

In the whole year that I’ve collected I’ve only found one lavender beach sea glass. It is perfect! Perfect shape and frosted really nicely. I must’ve been lucky that day.
The pink beach sea glass I found totals three. All three were found at separate times and only after close observation did I notice that it was pink and not white. I made one into a pendant and the other two I’ll make into earrings.

My son found our first yellow beach sea glass. The others I found myself all at separate times. Sometimes it’s hard to tell at first whether they’re really yellow or just a light light brown. Maybe it’s honey colored.

At any rate all three colors are very hard to find and rare, at least for me!

My daughter, on our first glass hunting trip, found a small tiny red one. We never found another red one after that. Still hoping though!

Beach Sea Glass Find 11-2-09 Monday

I’m trying to get the right time to go beach sea glass hunting so I went today between low and high tide. I think I should’ve gone earlier but I still had a fairly good day. I’m pretty excited with what I found.

The above pic was taken with a flash.

This next pic is with the flash suppressed.

This is a close up of the different hues of brown.

The bottom middle one almost looks orange and the one to the right of it looks yellow.

Cobalt blues and periwinkle.

The little ones I use to decorate gift bags.

This large piece is chipped. I plan to use it in a wall hanging with drift wood and either wire or hemp macrame.

Mahalo!

Keeping it Natural Maui!

Beach Sea Glass Find 11-1-09 Sunday

This was taken with a flash. The pieces are still kind of wet.

This pic was taken with the flash suppressed.

When I was getting the aquamarine beach sea glass on the top right hand I got tumbled in the waves! I was being tumbled in the tumbler!!!

Beach Sea Glass Find 10-30-09 Friday

I went reluctantly today because I’ve been going past couple of days and collected next to nothing. I went anyway and I’m glad I did because it was a very good day. I collected a lot of nice pieces that I can’t wait to turn into jewelry.

It took me about 2 hrs. to collect this. I don’t use a scoop. I wait until the white wash from the waves roll out and the rocks are exposed then I look for glass and sometimes I have to dodge quick to get it but it’s worth it. A lot of times my shins and feet get hit from the bigger rocks and it hurts like wow! I limp for a little while but then when I see the glass I get all excited and the pain goes away!

See my yellow one? It’s sometimes hard to tell. I thought the one on the left was also yellow but now I look at it and it looks more like a light light brown.

At any rate I now have enough to make a pair of yellow earrings.

One pair of forest green earrings coming up!

I can’t wait to make a pendant out of this piece of aquamarine blue beach sea glass.

These puka shells will be added to the collection I have to make my son a necklace.

A few I’ll use to make jewelry with beach sea glass.

And since cobalt blue and periwinkle are not an easy find I decided to take a close-up of my find.

Today was a good day!

My Beach Sea Glass Find Sunday 10/25/09

My son came with me yesterday to find beach glass. This is what I found…

This is a close up of the yellow pieces I found. I rarely find this color and was so happy to have found 3 in one day! Throughout the year I only collected 2 other yellow pieces. One of them my son found while walking on the beach. It was the first yellow one. I made a pendant for my oldest daughter out of it.

The bigger one I plan to make a pendant using wire and the 2 smaller ones will become earrings.

This close up of the light aqua blue was an interesting find to me.
