Golden Yellow Seashell Charm Bracelet

I love love love to make charm bracelets....I must because I've made several of them!
Even though they are  a LOT of work, I love to see them completed. From start to finish, this charm bracelet took me 2 days to complete. They are tedious, they are time consuming. And I love the results! This is my Seashell Charm Bracelet in Golden Yellow.

This beauty matches my Summer Seashell Earrings!

but it doesn't have to be summer to enjoy them! I'm staying beachy year round ;)

I'm also loving these beautiful golden yellow orbs of stunning perfection in these plump, freshwater pearls! These pearls are utterly gorgeous! I could gaze at these pretties all day long :D

This charm bracelet is definitely one of my favorites!

Thanks for hanging out with me today :D

Love,
Del

Seashore Sunday

 Hey! It's Seashore Sunday!

It's amazing to me that one place can look so different from hour to hour, and day to day.

and even minute to minute...the ever changing seashore.

Hope your Sunday is as beautiful, and ever changing as the sea!

Love,
Del

Happy Seashore Sunday!

I hope everyone is enjoying this wonderful day!

Everyone talks about what is on their BUCKET LIST....

I think we all should have one!

It gives us a great excuse reason to do some fun things.

One of the things on my bucket list is to visit US Lighthouses.

I LOVE LIGHTHOUSES!

I haven't seen very many, YET...
but I do intend to see more!

Ponce De Leon Inlet Lighthouse

Inside the Ponce De Leon Inlet Lighthouse

The Ponce De Leon Inlet Lighthouse is here in Florida...I bet you guessed that ;)
It is Florida's tallest lighthouse, and has 203 steps to get to the top of the 175 foot tower. It is also the 2nd largest masonry lighthouse in the nation. It was completed in 1887, and has since had a restoration, making it one of the best preserved and most complete light station in the nation.

Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, as it's called "for short", is located 10 miles south of Daytona Beach in Mosquito Inlet. There is a museum, and some cool old buildings (and Nascar memorabilia!) on the grounds. The admission price is $5 for adults, and $1.50 for children. It's a workout to get to the top, but it has been a few years since I went. Maybe I'm in better shape now....I'll have to go back and see!

Next week I'll share another lighthouse with you!

Do you love lighthouses?
Which ones have you been to?
Maybe we have seen some of the same ones!

Have a Wonderful Seashore Sunday!

Love,
Del

Happy Seashore Sunday! 

Today I am at Daytona Beach!

Daytona Beach, FL

We just decided to take off Saturday afternoon, as it's only a little over an hours drive.

Just a little over nighter to get away and smell the salty air, and maybe play in the waves a little.

I'm hoping to remember to take some great new pics :D

My beach essentials are my canopy chair, sunglasses, sunscreen, hat, and my long sleeved white shirt. And plenty of liquids to keep us hydrated!

What do you take to the beach?

I hope you have a wonderful Seashore Sunday, too!

Love,
Del

Seashore Sunday

I hope you all are having a wonderful Seashore Sunday!

  Playing in the crashing waves is a fun way to enjoy it!

                          I do love it when it's calm.

                          Whether you take a walk...

                         Or hang out in the shade

                         Watch the sunrise

                          Or watch the sunset

            Enjoying the sea on a beautiful sunny day

                         Is a great way to relax and play!

Have a wonderful seashore day!

Love,
Del

Seashore Sunday

When you can't be there, a video is the next best thing...

Happy Seashore Sunday!

Seashore Sunday

When we were at Sanibel in February, I captured a horseshoe crab!

                                      With my camera!

                                     He was just a little guy!

This is my wallpaper on my laptop right now, and has been for this past week. That's what gave me the idea of sharing him with you today!

They are such interesting, and prehistoric creatures. The last shot is my favorite one.
Up close and personal ;)
I love meeting the live creatures from the sea!
Do you?

Happy Seashore Sunday!

Love,
Del

Seashore Sunday

Aahhhh...there's no place on Earth that gives me peace, and rejuvenation, like the sea.

From the pounding surf.....

to calming, peaceful tranquility.

 

Our amazing sea life...

and it's winged inhabitants, too.

There is just something about the sea,

that draws me to it's shore.

There's no place I'd rather be,

I could stay here for evermore.

I'm linking up with Gypsea Nurse for Sand and Sea Sunday!

Seashell Bracelet and Earrings Set with Freshwater Pearls and Bayong Wood

Lately, I've had a thing for making seashell bracelets with matching earrings. I made this set right after I made the Vivacious Purple set. The Freshwater Pearls are Midnight Blue, AA quality, and GORGEOUS! I found  a shell in Sanibel that matched my Bayong Wood beads so well, and the contrast between the pearls, and the wood, is beautiful. I love this set!

This set has an Island feel to it. It's Earthy with the Shell, Pearl, Wood, and Copper. Of course, I had to have a little Swarovski crystal. I do like a little sparkle ;) 

The underside of the shell has a pearl, crystal, and copper accents dangle. This exotic bracelet is perfect for a trip to the islands, or any beachy destination. The sun, sand, you with your coconut infused tropical drink with the little umbrella, wearing this one of a kind, Island Dreams bracelet and earrings set. What makes it one of a kind? The shell! I have the components to create another, but I'll never find another shell exactly like this one. I haven't ever made a replica of any of my shell jewelry.
I want each piece to be individual, a true one of a kind!  

This isn't listed yet, I had to share it here, first. I have another one on my bead board, and plan to get back to it tomorrow! 

Have a great week, and I hope to see you soon!
