Tiny Sea Glass "Mosaic" Pendants

>> Saturday, January 23, 2010

These are some of the pieces I've been working on this week. I have a self-imposed "use what you've got" challenge going on and all the stuff I'm making this week is done without spending a single penny for anything new.

I've taken bits of beachcombed pottery where the pattern was too worn for it to be used on it's own for a jewelry piece and decorated them with teeny, tiny bits of beautiful sea glass in rich, vibrant colors. The end result is, I think, mini mosaic art pieces you can wear!

My favorite is I Feel Teal. The shade on the (perfectly round) sea glass ball is so rich and soothing while the pottery shards are a cool robin's egg and almost Tiffany blue.

These can all be found in my Etsy shop.

I have the same challenge going on since summer. I did great for a while but then I took a mosaic class!
Sea glass is great fun isn't it? I love to look for it when I go to the beach.

It IS amazing the things we can make with what we already have (it's the crafter's disease that makes us constantly hunt and gather new supplies, lol!) I am nuts about the beach- it is snowing here today and I was there this morning!
