Sea Glass Heart Canvas

sea glass heart canvas 1
I’ve been tidying my craft room and found a small bag of polish sea glass …… I also found a canvas measuring 15cm x 15cm. …….

I cut out a heart and used it as a template on the canvas,  drawing very lightly round it with pencil and then began placing the glass pieces on the outline, chopping and changing their positions until I was happy.  When I was happy I used a strong PVA glue to secure them.  I’m dead chuffed!

    Wow Helen, This is fab! I love sea glass and these colours are gorgeous against the white card. Have you read Anita Shreve's book "Sea Glass", it's a lovely read. xx

    Sea glass always reminds me of how we all go through life, starting out with some sharp edges, but softening and becoming more beautiful with age. I love your canvas!

    I have been collecting sea glass from local beaches for a while now and have a nice collection. Trouble is, I have no idea what to do with it. I had thought of glueing it onto glass in a heart shape to hang in a window but had never quite got round it.

    Thanks for sharing your ideas!

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
