    I absolutely love this! I've been wanting to do this for so long. I lived the first half of my life in Jacksonville Florida on the beach and have lived the rest of my life and worked my entire life on Lake Texoma in Texas. And I have got 5 gallon buckets, upon buckets of Sea Glass. Well I guess technically it would be "Lake Glass". I've been getting into making suncatchers and wind chimes and such with them, but now with the holidays coming up and it getting ready to be Halloween, I thought that it would be so neat to make Christmas trees with them and give them to friends and family. I've seen different ways to do it. Some with cardboard cones, some where you just glue the glass to each other, but I really like this styrofoam method! I think I'm going to experiment a little bit and see which way comes out the best for me. Thank you so much for sharing! 💖

    Thank you for sharing this. I’m so glad I found something to do with all of my seaglass. I know Walmart has it and Amazon too. (I live on Lake St. Clair ~ not the ocean) I’m not so picky about finding things etched on to them. I was pleasantly surprised find a dark blue green one that had a magnolia flower carved into it I painted it with some metallic paint and the flower just pops. It makes a perfect pendant for a necklace 😊 I love those happy little surprises

      @lisavanderpoorten6594 3 роки тому

      Hi! Thank you for your comment! I use the Lortone 3A rock tumbler with coarse grit and run it for about 3 days. Then I check it. When you do your first batch check it every day because sometimes the glass you selected will get extremely thin while tumbling. I just want a frosted look with no sharp edges. I don't want the glass too thin. I only put thick pieces in to the tumbler so mine takes about 3 days.

    Great video. Thank you for sharing. I read Lance's book as a young man, and it was very inspirational and moving. Above all, it's his practicality, determination and courage which shines through - basically a completely positive mental attitude and not dwelling on negatives but focusing on the things within our power to change. There's a reason why he's a winner - it's mostly to do with his mindset. I think cancer is somewhere within every family, even if there is no genetic predisposition - it's an horrific disease and Lance did his best and a tremendous amount of good in the world by spreading a message of hope and positivity. I'm so glad you are also a survivor with your own message of hope and determination. It pays to educate yourself in all things, and you are both testament to that. I can't say I read Lance's book due to any real cancer awareness or for that side of things, but it did bring it much more to the centre of my attention and gave a real insight into everything. Above all, it's the contrast of the despair of the diagnosis and horrific toll it takes on a body, with there being a successful return to life at the end. If you do decide to write a book, I wish you all the best luck with it, but above all hope you remain healthy and strong. This is one of the best and most upbeat videos I've watched in a long time - people could do with more hope in the world instead of all the mainstream doom and gloom and general pessimism. Thanks for brightening my day.
