[lakeeriebeachglass]

Me too but they are getting fewer and fewer!

how do you get the holes in the beach glass without them breaking?

Used to be a trade secret but over to the right should be a how to video from my friend Charles (oops-surftubled)

wow that is amazing. I do flameworked beads and such... but your jewlery has so much more natural beauty than i can create. What do you do just walk around the shores searching? or what?

[lakeeriebeachglass]

I do get out to the beach as often as I can with four kids in tow. Some days are more productive than others but my collection now consists of many years of looking. Plus, not all of it is jewelry quality either. There is a genuine enjoyment and passion with collecting sea glass and creating beautiful things with it. :)

e-coli-beach has the best in erie! I call it that cos of the masses of dead fish on it. Chataqua Park! Found part of an old cap gun on tuesday and only 5 pcs of glass. Always toss pieces that aren't quite ready back in. lol! Coming up again next week after the holiday. What drill bits you use? I can't find glass bits anywhere. I use reg mason bits but it takes half hour to drill a hole!

You were lucky to find all that beach glass. I spent a week combing the shores of Lake Superior and found one piece. What is your secret?

They are amazing! They remind me of Lalo Treasures.

@lakeeriebeachglass yeah me and my dad collect it but now he is starting to drill it to make necklaces andstuff

[pittghost666]

we pick it up large or minute sizes,can be used for any type of art or just in a jar,when I see my jar I smile and think of Erie and the fun times sifting thru gravel and sand at the shoreline. Its not about the money its about the FUN!

At 1:57, the lariat. It made me hit pause and call my wife in to see it! VERY nice! We just got back from Kelleys Island and found a good amount of glass. We even got a helpful hint from a local who made BG jewelry. I took a handful to her as a thanks.

I'll make sure I post some of my creations!
