Here are some of the more unusual ones, I was really doubting I would find any blue, as I never have there before, but luckily I found 2 little pieces. There is also a tiny piece of bright turquoise which is really beautiful, but unfortunately it is so tiny it would hardly make one droplet, let alone a pair of earrings.
I also found a range of sea shells and I love the range of colours and patterns although I'm not really sure what to do with them! A while ago I did try to drill holes in some of the yellow snail shells, but they just cracked apart. Maybe I should have used a better drill...And finally this teeny tiny hag stone! Actually the hole is so perfectly round I am half wondering if its been drilled and somehow dropped onto the beach. I am collecting all the beads I find on the beach and hope to someday make a necklace with them all, so this would make a nice addition!
what is a hag stone?
ReplyDeleteA hag stone is a stone with a naturally occurring hole in it, and they were/are often used as talismans to protect from things like sickness and nightmares :)
