Sea Glass Bird Art - Coastal Craft Idea

Tutor: Kate Nisbet, crafter and designer, What Kate Made

Calling all beach lovers! In this session, lifelong crafter and designer Kate shows us how to repurpose sea glass into beautiful 3D artwork for your home. Using sea glass, corks and simple materials from around the house, Kate will demonstrate how to create charming little sea glass bird art inspired by the coast.

This coastal craft idea is perfect if you’re an avid beachcomber and enjoy creating art with sea glass. These sweet little birds make lovely decorations for shelves and windowsills, as well as thoughtful handmade gifts or cute mementoes of your trip to the coast.
