Seaside Treasures

We just got home from a week long trip up the California coast, found a lot of amazing pieces and some of the best pottery I’ve ever found. Here’s just a few of our treasures, can’t wait to start creating pieces with them.... we are in sea glass heaven

Just a few of my favorite finds from today. Ended up finding 7 marbles, several bottle stoppers, part of a porcelain doll and some of the best pottery pieces I’ve ever found!

Back at my happy spot!

Glass beach, Fort Bragg.... trying to figure out a safe way of getting down this cliff!

A few of my favorite pieces I’ve found on our trip so far.

Merry Christmas to me! Danny is taking me up the California coast to hunt for sea glass (what else would I be doing??) first stop, Monterey. these are our finds for today.... found several reds and yellows and a lot great pottery pieces!

I’m so impressed with Brooke, she has taught herself how to bezel! We have wanted to take some metal smithing classes for awhile now but with COVID it hasn’t been possible so Brooke decided to go on YouTube and tackle it on her own. These are her first two pieces that she made for herself, we’ll be working on more to get on the website soon

Only a couple hours left to enter for tonight’s drawing! Tonight @seaside_treasures_ is gifting some lucky individual with this beautiful sea glass necklace! ... Post your 12 days of Christmas GIF or emoji on any one of our drawing posts to be entered in all the remaining drawings! . I love giving stuff away! Haha! Fun! We spin the wheel at 10PM each evening till Christmas!

Just finished up these necklaces. These are all pottery pieces that I found last week on our trip from Monterey to Fort Bragg. I’m obsessed with sea pottery and love finding the perfect piece of sea glass to pair it with all of the findings are sterling silver and range in price from $45-$50. I’ll try and get them on my website shortly but if interested please feel free to message me.

Well.... just kidding, we got checked into our hotel and Brooke couldn’t wait to look at all our glass so she dumped it all out it’s not organized or separated yet but here’s a preview of our finds this week.

Making our way back home but first needed to stop at pacific grove to hunt for some more sea glass. Can’t wait to start creating jewelry with all the amazing pieces we found this week, I’ll post pics of the glass and pottery we found this week when we get back home but for now here’s a cute picture of a starfish I saw today.

Funny story.... early this morning Brooke and I were at glass beach here in Fort Bragg (400 miles north of Morro bay) when a lady says to me are you from Morro bay? When I said yes she said I thought so, you make jewelry and I bought a necklace from you! Small world

Very successful day of hunting! Found seven marbles today!

Just finished these earrings today. The last ones I made with the copper leafs sold out immediately so I made a couple more :)

Spent the morning pairing up a few of the pottery pieces I found last week with sea glass to make some new pendants. I’ll keep you posted when I finish them up :)

My two newest earrings. Thank you everyone for supporting small business Saturday!

Haven’t finished sorting yet but here are a few pictures of our finds from yesterday. Lots of great pottery pieces, couple of reds and even found a porcelain baby arm

Waves were insane and the the tide was really bad but the payoff was worth it!

We are so excited! The Natural Toolbox opened in Pismo this weekend and is doing wonderfully! I Love being able to work with so many talented and lovely local artists. If you are local come check us out and help support small local businesses. Thank you and I hope you all have a safe and blessed thanksgiving.

Brooke just finished wrapping this amazing piece of uranium Sea glass.

A few of our newest pieces.

So excited to be partnering with such wonderful women!

Spent today bringing in product and working on displays, the store is starting to really come together. Can’t believe we’re opening this weekend, so excited!!

Our latest necklace using one of the flowers we pressed. Can’t wait for all the flowers we have pressed to completely dry!

Matching up Sea foam for earrings drives me crazy!! Who knew there were so many shades of sea foam

Just got home from the beach, these are a few of the tiny treasures we found today and a really cool piece of pottery that we found on Monday!

Playing around with something new and combining two of the things we are passionate about..... sea glass and gardening. We have been pressing some of our flowers and using resin to create charms.

Brooke and I had a wonderful time at the Santa Cruz sea glass festival this weekend! Met so many wonderful people and talented artists! I’m also extremely thankful that my friend Sarina was able to come and help us.

I finished these two necklaces last night. I Love the Yellow Sea glass! Both of the charms and chains are sterling silver. Will be adding to my website shortly, if interested please message me

Fall for our fall sale. Say goodbye to summer and hello to autumn savings.

My latest project. Been working on these sun catchers to take to the sea glass festival next week. Pictures don’t do them justice, they’re so pretty outside with the light shining through them but I just can’t get a good picture. Have a few more still to make, they just take so long to double drill each piece because they are such stinking thick pieces!

I LOVE this piece of abalone that I found! Just finished drilling it to use in a sun catcher.

Two more necklaces that I finished last night.

Yesterday was all about necklaces, today I’ve just been focusing on earrings. I love the double sterling drop finding’s!! I ordered them from a shop on Etsy, they come from Latvia. Last time I sold out of them immediately.... this time I ordered extra

This is my latest collection that I’ll be adding to my website. They are sea glass with pressed flowers and either a small gemstone or crystal accent. They are each $25 and would make a perfect Christmas gift!

A few of my favorite pieces that I just drilled. Have to admit that I was holding my breath and praying as I drilled the multi and red piece!

Had so much fun making these. I met a local florist who pressed the flowers and made the resin charms for me to use in some of my sea glass necklaces

Gorgeous piece of peach colored sea glass that we just finished wrapping. $48 includes sterling silver chain.

Brooke’s been busy today!!

We’ve been busy wire wrapping and getting ready for the upcoming Santa Cruz sea glass festival and holiday markets. These are a few of our latest pendants. There’s many more to choose from on our website and we are happy to do custom orders!

So excited to be part of this years festival. It’s outdoors and is scaled down this year to keep it safe but should be a blast!

A new style of necklace that we’ve been working on. Having fun playing with all the different bead combinations.

Happy foggy Monday!

A few of our newest pieces that I just finished photographing and will be adding to our website.

A few of our newest wrapped pieces, I love how thick and frosted each of these pieces are!

Going through some of my sea glass, sorting which ones to wrap and which ones to drill.

Can’t tell you how much we enjoyed being able to finally do a show again this past weekend!! We really miss the social part of our business and being able to meet new people. It was scaled down with social distancing but it was wonderful!

If you’re local come check us out today or tomorrow at Tooth and Nail winery!

This piece of bonfire uranium glass was a bit of a challenge to drill!

Come out and enjoy some socially distanced shopping at this beautiful church. So excited to be a part of this event and to hopefully meet many of you in person

Three necklaces that I’ve just finished. I’m obsessed with sea glass and love working with it!!

I get so excited when I finally find two pieces of sea glass that are a perfect match! Drilled these beautiful pieces yesterday to make these earrings. $34
