Imagine a fine glass of wine on a hot sultry night sitting on the back porch with friends.
Take it one step further!
Imagine, after a day of sea shell hunting in the bright sunshine,
you are sprawled in a reclining chair looking out to sea holding one of these glasses filled to the brim with your favorite wine.
Now we are talking!
These one of a kind glasses are the perfect accompaniment to a delicious sea food meal or with appetizers.
First, I had to find the right glass that I wanted to paint on.
Something a bit different - I found these at Pier One.
I liked the rings around the base - it reminded me of waves flowing up the beach and slowly receding.
What to paint - not an easy question.
I used my favorite sea creatures: the Blue Crab, Nautilus shell, Lions Paw, Starfish, Moon Snail, Florida Cerith shell, and of course the Common Sand dollar.

On the third side I painted the starfish, Moon shell and Cerith shell.
The glasses turned out fantastic- didn't they?
