I should be painting my trim...

But it'll be flaking later and I'm having too much fun to actually go out and get some sunshine. 

Am I allowed to really like this?

First, I made my own bezel with a sterling backing and argentium bezel wire, and then I put four little pieces of sea glass in the bezel.  Then I covered them with Diamond Glaze and put the little amber piece in the centre and covered it with more Diamond Glaze. 

I think the reason I like it so much is that the glaze gives the effect of looking at the sea glass underwater (complete with the little bubbles my blind eyes didn't see until the pictures showed them).  It's a very liquid crystalline look.

Now I know what to do with all the beautiful, tiny pieces of sea glass that are too small to drill or wrap. 

This pendant is $40.
