Sea Glass, Beach Combing Etiquette. Don't Be Rude !!

Sea Glass And Beach Combing Etiquette 

Don't Be Rude, Give A Girl Some Space!

Good morning fellow beach combers.

I never thought that I would consider writing an article on this topic but
here I am. lol 

This morning while I was at the beach minding my own business, I was startled by the sound of rocks under feet. I looked up and this couple that also searches the shoreline quite frequently were digging three feet away from me. Within a minute or two I had one on either side of me, digging in the same pile of rocks that I was digging in. I don't know about you but I have a method when I sift through the rocks and having someone dig right next to you will mess with your mo-jo, Am I Right?

They made sure to box me in and continued to dig as close to me as they could get. They were sure to dig in every pile of rocks within five feet of me for the next 20 minutes. Yes, I totally understand that it is a public beach and I have no rights over it. lol  This shoreline I am talking about, is a 5km stretch so there's no reason why they needed to be up right my nose.

I decided that I would start to make my way up the beach a bit and give us some space between us. Her husband was right on my heels. I lingered in a small pile for a minute and he stopped at the pile of rocks next to me. By this point I was starting to get annoyed and feeling quite crowded. Instead of flipping my lid I decided to double back the way I came. Within minutes the wife was on my heels again. I tried to pop over to different piles of rocks and every time I turned around she was there. Finally after 40 minutes of this nonsense, I packed it in.

This is extremely rude behavior. It ruined my morning. I haven't been able to get to the beach for some ME time in weeks and I was really looking forward to it. I am super bummed out that this was how I started my morning!! I hit the beach before I had my first coffee. That is how excited I was to head over there this morning!!

So here I am sitting on my couch with my coffee, sorting through some of my past treasures instead!!

When you take your next beach combing stroll, please remember people need their space. Some people need the beach to decompress from a stressful week. What happens if you disrupt a decompression??? You run the risk of an explosion. lol

Not to mention digging withing 3 feet of a stranger while there is 5km of seashore to roam is RUDE. Respect other people space!! Head and personal!!

10 Great Gifts For Any Beach Lover

What Is Sea Glass And Where Can You Find It !?

Sea Glass. What Is It And Where Can You Find It ??

  Genuine Sea Glass originates as jagged pieces of colored glass from broken bottles, broken dishes, or even shipwrecks. They are rolled and tumbled with the sand and pebbles in the ocean for many years, until all of their sharp jagged edges are rounded off. The clearness of the glass gets worn to a beautiful frosted finish. Giving you some of the most beautiful and unique colored keepsakes for any beach combing, beach lover. Sea Glass hunting is like treasure hunting, you just never know what amazing colors you might find in your travels. Every piece has its own history!! 






     Through my travels I have come across thousands of pieces of beautiful sea glass pieces. Blues, Violets, Reds and everything in between. You may find pieces that look similar to each other, but you will never find two sea glass pieces that are exactly the same! Like their shape, no two stories behind the pieces are the same. To me that is amazing, and the thought always makes me smile. Usually I end up lost in a daydream of how each piece came to be.

So Where Can These Little Beauties Be Found??

Genuine sea glass can be found along the shores of any ocean coastline! Some people find sea glass while they are out for a stroll on the beach, others are there with a rake or shovel in hand ready for anything the shoreline may bring.

These little tips will change the way you search for sea glass! 

They will also change the amount of sea glass that you find each trip!
I can bet your bounty will double if you use these tips.

The nasty weather that January has brought to our foggy shores has made it quite difficult to visit my favorite Sea Glass spots. With the temperature below -20 I have not been out to the beach in a while and let me tell you, I am going completely SHACK WACKY. I have had a lot of things in my life stressing me the heck out, over the last few weeks. Since the beach is where I go to clear my head and shut out the rest of the universe, so I can think. My brain is in overdrive.

I have decided to put the craziness to good use and dive into my art instead!! I have added some great new designs to my Etsy shop and I am always happy to put together a custom design you might have in mind!!

Many of these new additions have some of the most rare of the sea glass colors. Black/Dark Purple, Violet, Pink, Cobalt, Aqua and more!! They have made me smile while putting them together and I hope they will make you smile as well.
