I made this adorable piece with memories of my trip to Puerto Rico, dancing in my head. If you've followed my blog - then you've no doubt read about this amazing opportunity! AND you've also read about my LOVE of the bio-luminescence bay tour that we went on. The "Bio Bay" is one of 5 in the world where plankton turn blue, when they are disturbed. SO, when you move the water - it's a beautiful blue color. Just STUNNING!
So, you'd think THAT would be my inspiration for my piece....but it's not. Instead, I went with the beautiful BLUE cobblestone that is throughout Old San Juan.
Gorgeous blue and white sea glass with a sweet little sand dollar |
Sand dollar up close - the piece needed a little something special |
