 The tourists are finding their way back home....life guards are no longer on the beach....kids are buying school supplies and a few leaves are changing colour already!!......Its fall

I had a great summer with people coming  to visit my studio from Poland, Scotland, England,Romania, Panama,well all over the world and across Canada and the USA!! The summer weather was not the best but it made for great sea glass picking.I have seen such great sea glass this summer from reds, oranges, to stoppers and marbles.There was a lot of this very pretty jade green that I never saw much of before, I will post pics up next time.I met alot of young people as well with beautiful treasures, I think they can see the glass better than us because they are closer to the ground :) 

As you all know by now that Angela moved away to Hamilton Ontario about  a year and a half ago so we went our seperate ways.FYI she is moving back to Inverness and  is in the process of starting her own sea glass business here called buried  treasures sea glass by angela. buriedtreasureseaglass@yahoo.ca  if you wanted to get in touch, good luck Angela

I have to get back to the studio,finishing up an order for Maples Gallery  in Bishop's landing in Halifax

I too have been busy making jewelry here in Hamilton, Ontario and had the opportunity to go to Toronto to meet one of our jewelry suppliers. It was exciting to see all they had to choose from  (it never looks as good on the website).  I and my daughter were like kids in a candy store! ha I had to remind myself to stay focused on the real reason I went there, nice chains! So I did that first and then went onto my budget because it would  be easy to get carried away. I'm preparing for a home jewelry show at my sister-in-law's on Dec. 1st. Should be fun... So if any of you are interested in a home show before Christmas here in Hamilton or I'm sure Brenda would do one in the Inverness area, let us know by dropping an e-mail to the heading Contact Us.. Thanks for visiting our website and keep coming back because we post things frequently especially with Christmas coming. Now I must wrap some sea glass! Later!
