So sorry for the silence, I've been out learning all the cool things! Hubs gifted a metal smithing and jewelry fabrication class to me for Christmas. End of January I started into an 8 week course and I am obsessed and learning and growing so much! I started another 8 weeks this past week. Hoping to add to my inventory this go round while adding to my skill set 💕.
Here is a Video of my personal project at the end of the first 8 weeks

This was such a joy to make. My oldest is performing in the Grinch ballet with her studio's youth ensemble this weekend. The amount of love and magic her teacher puts into pulling this and other shows off is incredible. This piece will accompany a beautiful gift basket of all sorts of other goodies given tomorrow night at dress rehearsal.
This studio is so special to us and we are so grateful to be part of this loving and supportive dance community.

Tried to capture the uniqueness of this one ignore the ugly thumb 🤪.
This is a piece of the bottom of a bottle, given the brighter green coloring it most likely was not a beer bottle.
Fun fact, sea glass tables in the ocean for 20+ years to get the frosted beauty, smooth edges and unique markings.
Feel free to make some guesses as to where it may have come from.
My guess is an old glass mountain dew bottle.

Found in Surf City last spring

If you have any desire to geek out on any sea glass history this is a great read and perfect source for all things sea glass and beach combing.
I will be posting a pink next, I have only ever found 2, a real treasure 💕

Rose-colored glasses might be exactly what you need for hunting pink sea glass on the shore. While the soft pastel shade or sometimes peachier hue is a collector favorite, it is indeed rare. You can be fairly certain that true pink sea glass likely originated as some form or piece of Depression glas...
