sea glass

Here is my latest mosaic project. I have been planning to make this since July and finally got around to it thanks to Anna's Craft Binge last weekend. Last summer, Mike and I went to Bayfield, WI for our anniversary. Mike collected these skipping stones and sea glass on the shore of Lake Superior where we stayed. Then we found the frame at a garage sale - it said "serenity" all over it in gold paint so I painted it black. The photo is of the two of us kayaking through a sea cave on Lake Superior. Julie said that the latest trend in mosaic art is to leave pieces un-grouted so I skipped the mess of grouting and voila! I love the sea glass. It's hard to find because a lot of people collect it. It's a pain in the ass to grout because it's porous so it's better left un-grouted anyway.
