I’m really lucky to have friends who send me their beachcombing finds so I can weave them into my work. This one contains amazing orange/red seaweed and a tiny yellow auger shell sent by two friends and originating from opposite ends of the UK. When I can’t get to the beach, it’s fantastic that I still have gifts from the ocean to play with. We’re so fortunate to have such amazing coastline treasures to find from around the UK. . . . #augershell #seaweed #limpetshell #periwinkle #tinyshells #rockpool #turquoisepatina #copperpendant #orangeseaweed #ukbeachfinds #oceantreasures (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD4GPdmn_Mf/?igshid=1rq74h172hv74
