Sorting through a collection of seaglass from my sister. She's the one who makes the seaglass suncatchers. These teardrop shaped pieces feel really special. I'm not sure what to do with them.

@dillyd
I don't know if it is possible to drill a hole in them, but they look fine for a necklace. Somehow they look like jelly beans to me.

@jlperuyero
I would be afraid of cracking them, but I suppose I could practice first on the more common shapes. I was thinking of wrapping them with wire, but then I wouldn't be able to feel the glass shapes.

@dillyd @jlperuyero the one time I drilled a hole in a piece of seaglass I used a dremel (clone), a diamond tip, and worked under water, following some tutorial found online, and it worked quite nicely and easily

of course I was using a common shape of green glass, and not the good ones :D

I don't know whether those tutorials can still be found on 2026 internet :(
