SEA GLASS


MEDLEY


DEBBIE BULFORD


S


ea glass is collected all over the world.
The delicate shades of sky blue and sea
green are truly beautiful. Natural sea
glass is a product of years of natural tumbling
by the waves, but due to plastic bottles and
recycling these collectible seaside gems are
disappearing. So, why not make your own?
