More New Pendants

I've been busy with the torch- I made a bunch of beach pottery and sea glass pendants and have started on the first of two pairs of bezel set sea glass earrings, which is tough because the glass is so tiny!

I'll be working on some more seashell pendants later in the week, finishing up the earrings and also getting back to some wire wrapping, haven't done any of that in a good long while! Stay tuned for more pictures soon! :)

My first genuine yellow sea glass piece!

I found this gorgeous butterscotch yellow piece in Jamestown the other day- my husband had the day off from work and we decided to take advantage of a private beach we have access to and go looking for sea glass. It's the first piece of yellow I've ever come across. Aparently they are extremely rare, occuring about once in every 3000 pieces. Yellow glass was mainly used for decorative household dishware so not generally discarded bt the waterside.

I've been selling off some pieces of sea glass and pottery on eBay, but this one is just too good to pass up! I get so "blah" about making jewelry sometimes, nothing inspires me. When I saw this one and realized it was actually yellow and not just dirty, I was ecstatic! Now I just need to carve some time into my busy schedule so that this can become a pendant very soon!
