Pieces of glass that have been tumbled around in the sea, in amongst the sand and stones over many, many years which can then be found on our beaches, smoothed and frosty looking are what we refer to as Sea Glass or Beach Glass. Add to this the natural reaction between glass and salt and you end up with the etched, frosted look you find on your sea glass...
Amanda Halliday makes sea glass jewellery from sea glass that has been collected from the shores of North East Scotland. She uses Diamond Drill bits which she finds are perfect for drilling the glass along with a Proxxon drill.
Tina from Driftwood Dreaming uses Eternal Tools small diamond drill bits for drilling small neat holes into sea glass to make her coastal jewellery.
Tina also uses the small 3mm diamond drill bits to drill holes in beach pebbles for key rings and wedding favors.
