Keeping Your Seashore Treasures Shiny

[pinterest]I am still playing with my treasures I found on Monday’s trip!:I soaked all of my sea glass, pottery, rocks and shells in a bucket of water with about 1/2 cup of bleach:Then rinsed everything well and laid out to dry in the sun:Look at some of my cool stuff I found!:I love using unusual items for accessories and sea glass and is unusual!I love the look of the frosting on each piece:But I heard a tip about rubbing them with olive oil to keep them looking wet. I decided to give it a try:Can you tell the difference? I’m not sure I like the sea glass so shiny without the frosting. What do you think? I tried rubbing oil on these seashells that were so pretty when wet:What a difference. I think I like the shells better shiny. And I also like the look of the shiny (wet) rocks:Yes, I do like the wet look for the rocks! You can see so much more detail:So much fun playing with all this stuff! Have you heard of using oil to keep sea glass shiny? I decided I am not going to shine my sea glass, or pottery of course, but I might gloss up my shells and rocks! What do you think?!Have a wonderful weekend everyone! Enjoy the rest of summer- it is going by so fast!If you need help decorating you home, contact me today.
