Who wouldn't want to get that comment?!

Owls in Towels Wildlife rehabilitators often wrap owls in fabric so they can be weighed, treated, and fed. If not, the owls get in a flap.

Striking indeed!

The wind today got the clouds really moving!

Oh I see it now!

Yes please!

Yay! Thanks for making Kweq'Smanit!

A small round white beach stone hangs from a silver chain which has four bronze-colored faceted glass beads wire-wrapped in, two on each side of the pendant. The necklace chain is laying over a piece of driftwood on blue textured fabric.

A creamy white beach stone with a natural speckled pattern that gives it surprising depth, and so nicely shaped by the ocean (thank you ocean!).

Dark blue-green ocean with small ripples on the surface, a dark sliver of land on the horizon with orange sunset sky over it, and big clouds at the top that look like a watercolor mix of gray, blues, and white.

Third a sandy beige shell with small clear and larger glass beads that flash colors in light above it.

A horizontal white shell fragment with curved corners and edges on a silver chain, hanging on a gray neckform display.

This shell was such a fun find - it was practically asking to be a necklace. It makes a lovely horizontal bar style but with a curvy edge. The shape of the shell is entirely nature-made!

A white seashell fragment with bronze-hued parallel curved grooves naturally etched in the surface of the shell. The shell hangs on a necklace made of bronze-colored beads. The necklace is lying on a light blue textured fabric.

This shell is so perfectly shaped to be a pendant, thanks to the forces of the ocean.
I've had the shell for a while, waiting for the right way to show it off, and it all came together with these bronzey beads that complement the shell.

Thank you 🥹

I love seeing one when I'm walking in the woods!

If you're still open to requests, I'd love one, especially about a thing happening in a few days.

A limpet shell with a large hole in the middle that was naturally created. Hanging inside the hole are two sapphire blue color recycled glass beads.

These lovely limpet shells have, by forces of nature, become really cool natural frames to hold beads in watery shades of blue representing the beautiful colors of the sea where these shells came from. Perfect for keeping the ocean vibes close 💙

I'm not menswear guy, but I think he looks great!

OK I understand. I see Mts Baker and Ranier regularly so I'll take whatever shape I can get!

Wow! These are fantastic! If I can make a gentle request for a rectangular version please!!

Any chance for Mts Baker or Ranier?

Happy #WorldJellyfishDay to all who celebrate 🎉
These mysterious magical creatures absolutely inspire me!

A razor clam shell lies open with some white cord and beads in purples, blue, and white to complement the shell. The shell and beads are on a beige mat along with jewelry-making pliers and eyeglasses.

A work in progress this week - inspired by the beautiful colors inside this shell.

A first look at a batch of beach stones that finished tumbling! These were all found on my beachwalks, hand-picked for what they would (hopefully) look like when tumbled to a polish, which takes months. So fun to get that first look at them as they come out of the barrel!
