Sea Glass Art by Jackie you pouring out your sea glass, picking up and dropping it, and moving it around has made me watch your videos so many times because it gives me chills! More sea glass ASMR 🙏🏼😂 It prob sounds stupid, but I’m a nurse and I look forward to some of your videos because they are relaxing and you have a great voice! I love ur art also and the content of your vids! Thank you Jackie!
I spend a few weeks each year on Mount Desert Island in Maine, and the beaches there usually have very small amounts of sea glass. I usually attribute it to high tourism numbers as well as a number of local artists making art. I always get really excited when I find a nice piece!
Thanks so much! Very interesting info. I collected glass on New Jersey beaches for years. My mom got me started when I was just a little kid, and I still have all of it! I’m so glad I found your channel, I’ve subscribed and I’m looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos!
My dad use to collect the glass insulators.. He worked for Southern Bell Phone Company for years from 1955-1985. He was a Supervisor for cable installation and repair . When the phone company changed from wire lines to fiber-optics they didn't use the glass insulators any longer and brought them home he had bucked of them all different colors and sizes. You have a beautiful array sea glass. I live in South Florida and have collected sea glass since I can remember. My favorite are the ones I found with my Grandparents who are no longer with me. I cherished the many hours we walked and talked on the beach together looking for sea glass. Now my son and I do it together. It's a special bonding memory we share together.
Our sea glass is usually really worn. Only found 2 red ones, no yellow, 1 grey, 6 pinks, 2 purples, and numerous different colored blues, greens, browns. I also occasionally find the clear stuff with chicken wire in it.
Very informative. In Wisconsin my kids and I find a decent amount on Lake Michigan. We even find some with wire in the glass. Which makes me think it came from a ship/boat which sunk. We also have some with uranium
Seaglass, my lifelong love (Massachusetts). I have a lot of marbles and flat marbles that I can only guess are from nearby glassblowing shops? My collection looks a lot like yours in the same amounts color-wise. Love bonfire glass and how it's all twisty. Thanks for sharing:)
Such fun,thank you, much appreciated, I seen a documentary on sea glass,and the lady went to locations that could only be accessed by helicopter,and she had to scale down cliffs to get to uncharted location's,it was such fun to watch,she also said the color red was a rare find.
Wow so interesting love this collection. I have a bottle and jar collection and love glass. I recently found a piece of glass on the beach and it was so fascinating lol
Hi Jackie, I'm from Portsmouth Rhode Island and just came across your videos nice to know that there's others out there that love sea glass as much as I do. When you look for sea glass for your mosaics are you looking for flat pieces? I have a lot of sea glass, though as we know most of it comes from bottles and there is a curve to it. Do you use those in your Mosaic or just stick with flats? TY
I love Portsmouth. We’ve visited a few times but never went sea glass hunting. I use the curved pieces as well as flat, as I prefer I lot of texture in my finished pieces.
Very interesting. I am new to your channel and to seaglass. Just wondering whether you use whole pieces of sea glass in your artworks or if you cut them up.
I have never found a glass javex bottle bottom. During the PEI ban on cans and plastic, did your Javex come in glass or is it really old glass? Thanks for another great video.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie Wow that will be my next thing to watch out for. Loved todays video. I honestly think most of the glass I find has been dumped in recent years. It is difficult, but not impossible to find the really old stuff the past 6 yrs or so.
It's only considered authentic if it comes from the beach or lake and was actually tumbled by nature. However, sometimes people will tumble glass so it appears polished like sea glass. If you buy sea glass it may be actually from the sea or it may be tumbled. They can both be beautiful. I only use actual sea glass because I have lots but if you can only get tumbled glass it is still fun to use for art. Good luck
Hi Jackie! I’m going to P.E.I. for 4 days next month and I’m trying to plan beaches that are a “MUST SEE” for sea glass! Do you have any recommendations to find some good treasures?:)
I really hope you love PEI. If you go east check out Souris beach. Or any other beaches around there th hat are public access. If you go west check out Cambellton beach or any other beaches with public access. The national park beaches are beautiful and sandy so don’t often yield a ton of sea glass. You won’t get a big haul on any beach in PEI as it takes many trips brining home a pocketful
Sorry I didn’t finish that. …. Bringing home a pocketful every time that it eventually adds up to a collection. I hope you have a wonderful trip and you get good weather. It’s a beautiful province and the people are so wonderful there. Be sure to get some fresh seafood.
I've been thinking since I've been watching your videos, which isn't very long, that the ocean currents must bring the sea glass to PEI. I have never seen so much sea glass in life as you have collected x
I have been collecting my whole life and the collection reflects many beach hours by many family members. I know some beach’s are much more prolific than ours but it all adds up. I Think we do get good ocean currents and beach conditions that work well to create well finished sea glass.
I'm afraid this resource may be diminishing with the increasing use of plastics. Glass is harmless to sea creatures (made of sand), but plastic is very harmful. (Just a random thought while watching).. Thank you, from the coast of Southern California. We don't get much blue, but someone told me it was from bottles of antacid thrown in by seasick sailors!
I agree. Plastics are such an issue whereas glass just returns to the earth. Blue also comes from Noxema bottles (I’ve found lettering before). And they’re making lots of blue wine bottles so we can hope for more sea glass in the future. I do think we will always have sea glass washing in as our oceans are full of garbage. Hope you find lots where you are.
Sea glass is actually man made glass that has been discarded and ends up in the water. It gets tossed by the waves until smooth. Gems and crystals are naturally occurring.
I hate when people don't pick up after themselves. It takes years for the glass to become smooth enough for sea glass so that's not a good reason for leaving it behind.
She doesn't mention where the real source of glass comes from. It comes from old dumps and the stuff gets washed into rivers and streams and bays and goes out to the ocean.
One of the best ASMR sounds when the glass is shifted around ❤️
I agree. It is sooooo relaxing to hear that.

Thanks Jackie, I found my 1st stopper-seafoam green today :) I loving hearing the history of sea glass finds.
Wonderful! I have very few stoppers - they are so cool

So glad you like my channel. Hopefully you’ll make some cool art with your collection.
Very interesting…I use to live across the street from Lake Erie in Mich…never thought about putting it in my sewing…
It just adds a bit of interest.

Very cool collection!
Thanks!
Super interesting Jackie!
Thanks Debbie

If you shine a black light on your sea glass you’ll be able to tell if it has uranium because it will glow
Woooww thank you for this video! Its really educational!
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative, and so relaxing to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
nice collection
Thank you
Glass bottles and jars make excellent homes for little ocean dwellers too
Cool
Hello Jackie the glass at the end of the video is part of a television tube, I used to work at a factory where t.v. tubes were made.
Thanks so much for letting me know that
Your " stoppers " were super cool !! 😎
They’re a rare find.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie colours reminded me of Easter 🐇 pastels
That gray glass is from older tvs I have a bunch Im going to put in the rock tumbler.
Thanks. That’s what I think too.
I absolutley love your art!
Thanks
Very interesting video❤I am starting collecting sea glass too.
Good luck! I hope you find lots

Interesting clue and theory, so i know now. Thankyou so much✨
Awesome 👏
Those bottle stoppers are SOooooooo COOL! Thanks for sharing! 🥰🙏🏼❤️
You are so welcome!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much!

Wow. That sounds very cool. I have found very few red over the years. It’s an exciting find when you get it.
Seafoam 💚💙
Wow so interesting love this collection. I have a bottle and jar collection and love glass. I recently found a piece of glass on the beach and it was so fascinating lol
Glass is fascinating
Love your art. Come to Barbados we can go on a hunt.
Thanks. I've never been to the Barbados, but it's on my list. I'm looking forward to return to travel after this pandemic..
I actually go to Rhode Island to get most of my sea glass! I do see a lot of trash at the beach I go to. I love Rhode Island!
I’ve never been there. So sad there’s so much garbage. Hope you get to the beach often.

I have never found a glass javex bottle bottom. During the PEI ban on cans and plastic, did your Javex come in glass or is it really old glass? Thanks for another great video.
It's really old glass. The ban was just for beverage containers. Javex has been in plastic for many years.

A lot of sea glass is actually really really old if you look it up some even back 100 years or more
That's so cool. I love to try to come up with theories of the origin of pieces.
😎😎😎
Beer bottle from parties or tourist town where people party
Lots of beer bottles for sure.
hello jacki do u mind if i take your idea for a lighthouse art ? its very nice i wanna make one like that too :)
Go for it. It’s a lot of fun.
BTW. If you’re the real Dexter Morgan, I hope you find a New hobby in sea glass art. It may be more relaxing than your Old hobby.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie thanks :) have a great day !
The first greys are from old TV's and lilacs/purples can come from depression glass.
Thanks so much

What is the deffrent sea glass and gemstone or crystal??
Sea glass is actually man made glass that has been discarded and ends up in the water. It gets tossed by the waves until smooth. Gems and crystals are naturally occurring.
Sea glass is hard to find most places everyone is looking for it.
It’s true. The best part is the time spent at the beach looking. Good luck finding some.
Some say Atlantis was taken by the sea. some of the sea glass is from the ruins.
OMG. That’s amazing.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie ua-cam.com/video/759HlvN7flU/v-deo.html
B
I had a friend find lots of sea glass in deep water collected around underwater rocks, on the beach there was very very little to find.
I’d love to find place to collect it underwater. What a dream.
Where do you get loads of sea glass from?
All from beaches - mostly in Prince Edward Island, Canada. I only get a bit every time I go - it takes years for it add up to "loads".
i spent six hours looking and found one brown and one clear piece 🤔
Some beaches don’t have much. That’s too bad.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie yeah. makes it more like treasure though
Don’t cut yourself lady that’s not like my mates sea glass it’s super smooth
It's amazing how different sea glass can be from beach to beach. I'm very lucky with the sea glass I get on our beach. Enjoy
If it’s not smooth I throw it back
Me too!
Where i live sea glass comes from people drinking and leaving the bottles on the beach
I hate when people don't pick up after themselves. It takes years for the glass to become smooth enough for sea glass so that's not a good reason for leaving it behind.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie I never left anything behind in a beach other than a rock I brung
It’s basically pollution?
In a sense - yes. But glass is made from sand and would eventually erode away back to sand. I'm happy to clean up some this pollution.
She doesn't mention where the real source of glass comes from. It comes from old dumps and the stuff gets washed into rivers and streams and bays and goes out to the ocean.
It's amazing what garbage can turn into.
