     Sea Glass is so versatile. 
It pairs well with just about type of bead and design. 
For this blog hop, I was working with 2 types of sea glass from ZnetShows .

Project 1 - "Tiny the Turtle' wire work pendant with Focal Sea Glass



Project 2 - A combination of Stack & Focal Sea Glass w/ glass, crystal, antique, Czech & Silver beads
I haven't been able to think of a good name for this set. Any ideas?


 
Here's the list of talented participants: Happy blog hopping!

  1. That turtle is just so adorable!
    And, your set is lovely as well. Alas, I am no good at naming jewelry so I will refrain from throwing my duds at you!
    Fabulous job with these new bead designs :)

    1. Thanks Hope, I just had to do something with wire. Then the glass with glass was just too much to pass up. :)

    1. Thanks Bairozan, I love working with wire & was going to do something a little more elaborate with the turtle but I ran out of time. The necklace is a play on glass with glass. I like eclectic. :)

    1. Thank you Linda, I like creating with wire so the turtle was fun! But I also like putting different textures, shapes, etc together. Still working on using combining colors. I tend to be monochromatic for some reason. :)
