your Odyssey Sea Glass News, Issue #012 -- Rock 'n Rollin'!
July 02, 2009
Hello All,

Best Arts and Crafts SuppliesLin_and_David

The last newsletter started out: "It is chilly this morning in the Pacific Northwest..." Well, it has warmed up to some very nice weather. Yesterday, I actually had my shirt off for on hour on the beach, working on my tan!

Hey, talk about a good day for Lin as far as sea glass goes! Wow! How come she always finds a LOT more than me? Well, as we're walking on the beach and she's picking up her three marbles (yes, I said three) and her quarter-sized piece of perfectly-frosted red (yes, I said red), I keep telling myself, "She can't play guitar...she can't play guitar...she can't play guitar..." Well, I think it helps my ego anyway...



Be sure to check the RSS feed or the blog page to see the red piece and marbles (well, two of the marbles were not acceptable to me, they were hardly frosted, so there, Lin), but really, the photos of yesterday's find will be added sometime this week and are looking good.

As you know, I have added an easier upload feature on "Catch of the Day" so that you can contribute your photos on what you find today at the beach.

And we look forward to seeing your beach reports, crafts stories, and photos on "Your FUN Page".

For those of you recently signed up, this newsletter is an update on the new features and changes in the last couple of weeks.

Jun 23, 2009, Not so NEW! Some day soon...

We are still hard at work taking photos and inventorying sea glass that we will be putting up for sale here at Odyssey Sea Glass. It's a lot of work to get the pages set up, but once it's done, it should go smoothly.

As I mentioned last week, we will be offering craft glass for mosaics and other projects; matched pairs for earrings, etc., bulk glass, variety groups, and beautiful individual pieces.
