Logo Sea Glass Earrings

The Lucky Sea Glass Jewelry logo designs are popular, so I thought I'd create a couple of more pair of earrings, with sea glass I found in Hawaii.  It took a while to find good matches -- but here they are.  One pair is with aqua sea glass and one is with white sea glass.  Sterling silver wire wrap, silver plated ear wires and logo tag.  They are $75 for the white, $78 for the aqua -- but 20% off until July 20 at my storenvy shop.  Lucky Sea Glass on Storenvy

How I Create Sea Glass Turtles

I finally finished the turtles!  Here are some pictures of the process for the suncatcher/ornament.

Made an aluminum frame, added a shell and crystals

More sea glass and tweaking the design!

Sea Turtles and Sea Glass

It has been a rather slow, frustrating recovery from the neck spine surgery almost four weeks ago, but I am making steady progress.  As I have been resting, I have been thinking a lot, and am now inspired by the intrepid, persevering little sea turtles that hatch on the beach and arduously make their way to the the sea.  It was an amazing, lucky sight for me to witness the sea turtles hatching on a beach in Puerto Rico a few years ago, that I will never forget.   Anyway,  as I make my own "journey to the sea" (i.e. recovery) I am inspired to create some sea glass turtles!  I have already made a sea glass turtle sun catcher this week, and will soon post pictures of the whole artistic process for you!  Must go now, and rest!

Wish Me Luck!

I am having neck surgery this week, so I probably won't post here for a while.  Hopefully, not too long!

 Also,  since I won't be creating new items for a while, I want you to know there are still plenty for you to choose from. I've added new rings to my website and other items to the Storenvy site.   As always, just send me an email if you are interested in an item or just purchase at my website or online store with PayPal.  I will be checking my emails, for sure.

Our visit to Baia Solana, Colombia

This was one of the trip highlights, as our small expedition ship was the first cruise ship ever to visit this small, remote village in Colombia.  They had been planning for our visit for two years!  We were greeted by the entire school population -- kids in their uniforms, singing and playing instruments.  Then given a tour of the school, the fish market, the library, and then the handicraft market and food.  Everyone was so welcoming.  Here is a video and some pictures.

Sea Glass Found in South America

Here are pictures of the various finds along the coast of South America.  We travelled up from Ushuaia, Argentina at the tip up the west coast, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Panama, going through the Panama Canal.  I also found  a lot in Ecuador.  More about the trip later!!

Sea Glass I Found in Ecuador and Blue-footed Boobies

We explored an island off the coast of Ecuador- Isla de la Plata-  and saw nesting blue footed boobies (really!) and I was lucky to find sea glass there, too.  I made one pendant with an Ecuadoran find while on the ship.  Here are some of the pictures.  (Sorry I mislabeled the picture with Peru!!).

These finds are from Ecuador, not Peru!! Got my islands mixed up.

Returning home from South America -- and some pictures for you!

Of course, I took hundreds of pictures during the six week journey in South America -- but I will just post a few here.  It is a challenge getting back home from such a long trip!  Where is everything?  The weather has changed from snow to blossoming trees!  The house next door has sold -- and it wasn't even on the market when we left.  Life goes on.  I will take pictures of the sea glass I found in  Peru, Chile, and Panama soon!!

South American Cruising and Expeditions

There is so much to write about and show that this will take a number of posts.  We started out at the tip of South America, in Ushuaia, and then proceeded up the west coast, through Chile, Peru, Colombia and Panama.  We visited glaciers, remote villages, jungles, rainforests, and transited the Panama Canal.  I found some sea glass on the way, too.  Keep posted!!
