I've bought a smaller,less expensive tumber to make faux sea glass! Watch the horizen for a new craft in a future post!

I put some of the sea glass I have found on the beach but the edges weren't quite rounded enough. The same way I load the barrel with grit, this is loaded but instead of 4-6 weeks,
this only requires 4 days!

I will also try breaking some of the collected glass to tumble so that I can round out my glass palette!
It is a cute little tumbler and fits right on the shelf above my rock tumbler; both are pretty quiet which is much appreciated! I hope to have some results from both batches to share on Tuesday!

I love sea glass. My mom used to pick it up in her daily beach walks and always had a bowl of it that I like to play with. It's somehow a very soothing substance to have in your hands.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I have a lovely necklace pendant made from green sea glass, I should wear it more often.
ReplyDeleteWill be interesting to see the glass.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved sea glass. I think you've found a new addiction haven't you? I can't wait to see it.

I wish you could see the rock I found yesterday when the tide was out on the beach in Bellingham, WA!
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a tumbler when I was a kid, it was fun to see the results - looking forward to seeing how the glass turns out! xx
ReplyDeleteNeat!
