Custom ordered sea glass ring. For a lovely girl who is presenting it as a gift to her mother on her wedding day. It was joy to work with you, I wish you many many years of love, life and happiness together. Congratulations, Heather!

Hi Gretchen, thank you! Anytime you'd like to talk custom work, feel free to let me know, I'd be honored to make something for you! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking this lovely ring to my Turquoise Tuesday Party! I have never found sea glass near my home. Never. I buy "sea glass" from stores. This makes me sad.
