I love the ocean...but when I can’t be on the beach, I love to visit Etsy !
Sometimes I do a search! And ‘sea glass jewelry’ is one of my favorite searches!
I love all of the beautiful jewelry but I also love a bargain. I usually limit my search to a certain ‘price’. It’s nice to narrow the search down to what I can afford!
And I’ve found a wonderful Etsy shop with fabulous jewelry at great prices!
Lacy Laura Gray has a ‘buy of the day’ and I took advantage of it one day to order this pretty sea glass necklace...it’s the prettiest shade of light blue!
And I rarely see stud earrings that will go with my ‘beachy’ jewelry so I put these in my cart, too.
I contacted her to ask her a few questions and she was very sweet and fun to work with. I told her about my blog and she even came to visit!
Well....imagine my surprise when I opened the package to find THREE little bundles all gift wrapped in tissue with pretty ribbon!
She wrote me a note and said she wanted to design something especially for me!
She’s a Florida girl and found the sea glass and coral on Cape Blas, “the tip of the cape”, 2 weeks ago.
It’s hard to express what it means to me for someone to show me such a kindness. What wonderful friends I’ve made through my blog and over the internet. I love having so many sweet friends right here in Florida!
I hope you’ll visit her...HERE ! You will LOVE the jewelry she makes and be surprised when you see her prices! Everything she sells is a wonderful value!
I love buying handmade....don’t you?

Diane, that jewelry is lovely!! I especially love the piece you chose. It has such simple, clean, and elegant look. I'll visit her Etsy store. Thanks for letting us know. :-)
I kind of got caught up in the moment and made a purchase before I left you a comment! Lovely seaglass jewelry! Thanks Diane!
I love treasures from the sea too... these are such pretty pieces!
YES! I love buying handmade from Etsy artisans. The beach glass pieces that you purchased are gorgeous and how very thoughtful of her to include an extra piece. I've found so many small artisans on Etsy do include something extra in your purchase.
One of the best parts of Etsy is you can find a gift for anyone on your list. I've bought wedding gifts, Christmas gifts for my little nieces, earrings for my sister, maple sugar candy for my husband, surprises for my daughter, etc, etc.
I'm off to check out her site - thanks for the link. ~Ann
Etsy would be an addiction that I don't want to acquire. I do think that these pieces are beautiful and it was so thoughtful of her to have custom made something just for you.
Your new jewelry is beautiful. Such a nice gift for a wonderful lady!
What beautiful jewelry! Love the colors!
Blessings

I am a sea glass lover from way back. we traveled up to L Superior some times and I had many memories of lake Huron and searches for treasure on the shore. I have ordered sea-glass jewelry too and I love it. people always ask about my necklace. it is so simple and so mysterious just thinking how it was made ...where did it come from how old is it . so natural.

How beautiful! And how sweet of her to send you an extra treasure! She has beautiful jewelry pieces and her prices can't be beat.
Definetly a beautiful piece and after all, theyre unique pieces! :) Very sweet of her! :)

Diane, Thank you for sharing this information. I love the sea and anything from the ocean. Your pictures are beautiful I will visit this Etsy store soon!
Such beautiful pieces!! Love that she found them by the sea!
Very nice! Beautiful and elegant.
It's all gorgeous, Diane! I just discovered LAVENDER sea glass last night while doing a search for 'vintage lavender' in the vintage category on Etsy! Be still my heart. Yes, I love buying handmade. Anyhow, thinking of you this evening and wanted to say hello. xo Jami
Those are such nice pieces. I will have to shop there soon. (budget) but thank you for bringing it to my attention. such fun!
Just lovely jewels! I can see why you love sea glass so much. What a sweet friend you've made.

Oh goodness, I have not visited in so long, read down and saw your fabulous BBQ meatloaf and this jewelry is beautiful, last Christmas I only bought online from fellow bloggers and sellers, yes if we are going to buy anyway, why not something special and one of a kind

I love those. Wish you were here postcard saying adjustment: wish those were mine. I'll check again after payday!
Just visited her website, what gorgeous pieces and they are all so reasonable!
I feel the same, Diane, can't even begin to explain how I feel over such kindness. That is why I'm so thankful for blogging friends like you.
LOVE this jewelry, by the way.
And I RAN and added you to the light procession. ;)
OH, I almost forgot. I just got back from Michael's with my brand new Smash Journal. Woo-hoo!! I got retro blue (aqua looking) one. Can't wait to get started.
:)
These are gorgeous. Can't wait to check out her shop.
