Beach Glass Jewelry

Hi! Today I will be talking about Beach Glass Jewelry. Making beach glass jewelry is one of my favourite hobbies. Most of you probably haven’t seen or heard of Beach Glass Jewelry or beach glass before, and if you have, its probably because I have given you a piece of beach glass. It is basically just glass that has been broken up and put into the sea or ocean. Then the glass has  been worn down by the water and then washed up on shore where people find it. It is very pretty because it comes in all shapes, sizes, and colours. Some common colours of beach glass are: Brown, blue, clear, and green, even though I have seen and found the colours  red, purple, and yellow. Beach glass can come in many sizes with some pieces being as small as a grain of sand, or some being 4 inches in length. I have lots of beach glass from when I went to Nova Scotia in 2012 and found it on the beach.

Beach glass jewelry is actually pretty easy to make….once you get the hang of it. All you really need is some wire and wire tools, beach glass and beads. You just have to make a loop in the middle of the wire then put it at the top of the beach glass and wrap it around the glass. After or during, you can add beads to it. Most of the time you can find the glass  on the beach in Nova Scotia or on any other beach even though it is most commonly found in Nova Scotia. When I went there for a vacation, I filled a whole box of beach glass and brought it home to make jewelry. At a fundraiser to raise money for my metaphorical great aunts cancer treatments, I sold the jewelry I had made and raised about $100 selling them for $5 each.

I have been making beach glass jewelry since I was 8 years old. It is really fun to do if you are a girl.( not saying it isn’t fun if you’re a boy) Last weekend , I went to my aunts house for a sleepover to make beach glass jewelry. It was really fun because  we also did rainbow loom ,watched a movie and she made me a pair of earrings in 30 mins !

After I had to go to a birthday party and I gave the birthday girl a  necklace charm for her birthday. I also gave my teacher last year a necklace charm for her birthday.  

If you have any questions about on of my favourite hobbies, come ask me!!
