Sea Glass Jewelry

It is very calming to go the beach on walk or having fun with family and friends for swimming. Even on hot winter days going to the beach along the sea shore looking at the waves and the surfers are relaxing and stress free mind for a couple of hours.

As always going to the beach is fun to look for some sea treasures like beach pebbles with differents colors and patterns, sea/beach glass of different colors.  What is Sea Glass?... Sea glass are actually broken pieces of bottled drinks of beers, sodas, ceramics, and other glasswares of different kinds that are tumbled naturally by sea water, sand and pebbles for a very long time.  The more frosted and smooth it is means it stayed long in the water.  Sea glass can be found on the beaches and lakes wherever there is people in the area the possiblity of more sea glass can be found.   More and more people are collecting sea/beach glass not just as a hobby but the possibility of profitable hobby as well because of its ongoing popularity.

Collected stones from Dea Sea, Israel                                             


Beach pebbles with patterns from Hasharon Beach, Israel


These are my collected sea glass some of them I threw it back to the shore because they are not yet perfectly smooth and frosted.  Most of them comes from a beer bottle, and glasswares.

The beauty of their frost are like snow when you look at it are just stunning.  And I can't go home without even one in my hand.   Collecting beach glass are addicting because you can pass out your time without thinking, sniffing the air of sea breeze are relaxing that you want to stay in the shore all day long.

Fused Copper Wire

One of my fears in making jewelry is the soldering technique as far as I can remember as a child I've seen my father's soldering materials and tools and how he manage to work those hot flames and I said "WOW" that's tough work.  Last year i bought a micro torch just in case I have the courage to try...in my mind I tried soldering like practicing it a hundred times and there's always the word "What If" every time I hold the torch then put it back.  I told my mother about the idea of soldering and she says "It will not happen until you try to make it happen".  Now for the first time in soldering using a micro torch as a starter I use raw copper wire to fuse, micro torch, fire brick, goggles, and a glass of water to cool off the hot wire and I was wondering since fine silver can be fused without flux maybe copper can be fused also in the same process.     After a couple of attempt to fuse copper wire finally I manage to make one bet...
