Sea glass is glass found on beaches that has been tumbled and smoothed by the waves, water and sand. The effect is just beautiful
.
As you walk along the beach you'll see it sparkle as the sun's rays catch its' surface. The clear pieces look just like ice cubes melting into the sand. Mr. Right and I spent hours combing the beach for Mermaid tears. It almost became a competition to see who could find a bigger piece, or a more unusual color. This is one of my favorite souvenirs from all of our travels. Is it because it was free? (You know I love a bargain) Although that was a nice perk, what I really love, is that it reminds me of the few days where all Mr. Right and I had to worry about was nothing more than who would find the next Mermaid tear. When I look at my little jar of tears I'll remember the precious moments we spent together on the beach in Rockport.
Now, for those of you who love the details, here's how I printed my Rockport tag:

OK, that tag tip? FABULOUS!! I've always wondered how people got stuff printed on tags and labels and such! Thanks for sharing!

I want some! It would make the perfect decoration for my new townhouse that I'll be sharing with my roommates this year :) Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteLove sea glass! Especially the way yoiu've displayed it. we used to live in Kodiak Alaska. There was a beach called Jewel Beach. It ALWAYS had tons of sea glass on it, and yes when the sun hit them they sparkled..hence it's name. Wish I had brought more with us when we moved. Now we hunt for it in Monterey along the beaches...when we can get there ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the memories ☺☺
