I Love Beach Glass!


I just can't help but love beach glass. Every piece is different and there's such a mystery about it. Where did it come from?
What did it used to be? What does it want to become? Wandering my cove looking or new pieces is so peaceful and relaxing.

Featured Artist Sandra Lindeman



Thoughts from Lampwork Glass Artist Sandra Lindeman:

I grew up in the Corpus Christi area. For 13 years I wandered but came back to the area to raise a family. For 25 years I had a life as an educator, and another as an artist. The past several years, my artist's passion has been creating lampwork beads and the jewelry they become. "Dancing with an angel" is the best way to describe the lampwork experience. My creations are truly unique and are "Not Your Grandma's Beads" for sure. The jewelry reflects the joy I receive from the imperfect earthly elements in our perfect nature.
