Sea Glass Jewelry

Sea glass is a beautiful result of the unfortunate fact that people litter.
Debris from storms is collected in the sea, slowly buffered by the action of the ocean, a combination of salt water, light and sand/rocks breaks down the glass and tumbles it to tasty little nuggets of assorted shapes and colors.
Red and orange are rare colors, bright yellow and green are hard to find.
Blues are coveted and green, brown and white are common.
Lilacs and purples are treasures.
For sea glass collectors it's a wonderful thing. 
For the environment....well, not so wonderful.
I use a Dremel drill press to bore holes through the glass, I will eventually make a video to share on this process, so you can see how it's done.
I hand wrap sea glass and make my own bails, I also make bracelets with sterling wire and beads added to the sea glass. They are beautiful!

What is wampum?

Picture
Wampum,  is made from the shell of the quahog — a particular type of marine clam found off the coast of New England.

The process I use is to search the beaches for whole or broken shells with deep hues of purple and pink. I clean the shells, break the larger pieces down with a hammer, then choose the pieces I wish to work with. I use a hand held dremel rotary tool to grind off rough edges and shape the piece, for pendants I use a dremel drill press to bore a hole through the piece, I usually grind a bit more, buff the piece, then I use rubbing compound, working it in with my thumb until the shine comes up from the face of the piece, then I buff it out and create a bail by hand. 
Voila! An authentic piece of wampum jewelry.
Wampum  is  Native  American  traditional  bead jewelry. It dates back to over 4000 years ago. Indians in New England wore wampum for special ceremonies such as engagements  and weddings . It was traded with the Pilgrams for commodities , food and clothing . Wampum is very sacred to the Indians and their culture because of the amount of time and effort it takes to create each bead and piece of jewelry.
