I love to create mosaic art with my sea glass. It is my goal to see more people enjoying this extremely relaxing art form. My videos show my work, as well as many "how to" instructions in the hopes of inspiring sea glass lovers everywhere to create beautiful works of art with their sea glass.
I live in beautiful Nova Scotia, Canada and spend as much time as possible at our cottage in Prince Edward Island where I grew up. Most of my extensive sea glass collection comes from beaches along the western shore of PEI.
I have written a book about Sea Glass Mosaic art which provides a "how to" in the hopes that more people will get involved in creating sea glass mosaics.

Thank you for all your inspiration.
You are so welcome!
I think it is sad that people do not want the world to see their art but instead ask not to have video or photos ?? I love your art an no one can duplicate sea glass art no matter how hard they try. Sea glass art and jewelry is always One of a kind, I'm very confused but that is normal for me. Your table looks fab and I hope you sell a lot of books and art this week.
Thanks so much. I love seeing what other people do and sharing what I do too.
Thank you for bringing us along! I would love to be here and I’d come back home with so much beautiful sea glass art!
It was a fun time.
Thank you Jackie. I've never been to a sea glass festival. That was amazing. Your display was beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for taking us along with you Jackie. Your table looks fantastic.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so kindly for sharing this wonderful video with us all. I was born in Pictou many years ago. Hopefully one year I can make it to the sea glass festival ❤
I hope so too! It’s lots of fun.
Oh my goodness, those shards! All so unique and beautiful. Great to see your art displayed. 🎉
I couldn’t believe some of the sea glass there.
How well attended was this seaglass festival? Are there other seaglass festivals that you attend? Thanks for the tour.
This is the only one I’ve been to. Lots of people came even though it was a hot weekend and perfect beach weather.
Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing joy in life.
Thank you.
Love Your Work Ms. Jackie!! I have your book and it is Awesome! I’m going to purchase a kit👍🏼
Awesome. Thanks
Looking forward to seeing your video of the festival! I imagine you have fans all over the continent and beyond. We are in So California. It dawned on me to Google Seas Glass Festival, and found one in Santa Barbara, two hours drive from here, in September. Will see what I can to get there....
Wow. I bet it’s a good one. It should be worth the trip.
The festival sounds like fun! Enjoy!
I will for sure
You never disappoint! Looking forward to the pictures 💕
Thanks so much!
A sea glass festival. How fantastic. Thanks for sharing your amazing work Jackie. Look forward to seeing your photos next week. Wishing you lots of success at the festival. I think the kits are a great idea.
Thank you!
Love the turtle and blue heron, especially…😊
Thanks so much
Do you use resin over all of your piece after the glueing process?
No I don’t. Check out my video called “A question of grout, resin, and finishing spray” for further detail
thank you for explaining why you don't like the pieces touching, its not a rule, so i will still make my sea glass art the way i do, since i combine it with dried flowers or seashells, it can be hard for it all to look mosiac together. my boyfriend says he prefers spacing inbetween when i showed him my first piece i did. i like both. he didn't use the word mosiac so i didn't understand and felt there shouldn't be spacing...but the your mind's eye, it can give a mosiac look if you leave spaces. cool! Also the first piece I did with clear gorilla glue as i did this on a whim, it's all i had at home! thanks for recommending the other product instead of glue. i will pick some up. i also picked up a lighthouse seaglass resign piece recently but didn't like how warped the "glass canvas" made of resin looked. so thanks for this video, time to go to more art!
mine was simply glued on to a pane from a picture frame haha, i will definitely be picking up some materials now as this is ultra fun, i tumble my own stones too and make some neat stuff...love living on an island!
You should do what brings you joy. There’s no rules except to make sure you’re having fun and it sounds like you are. Continue to enjoy and to create.
Thanks for the video Jackie. This turned out beautifully.☺
Thank you! 😊
Thank you! This is so adorable.
Thanks so much
Glad to see you
Thanks
I'm very new to this and just did some rock pours two weeks ago with beach themed colors! I poured it very flat in one broad line, with the cup touching the rock. The colors mixed beautifully and lots of cells opened. I should try to pour in stripes like that next, it looks like gems!
Sounds amazing
This is perfect for Newbie’s like me😃🌻
0r, you could get the biggest frame or old window and start with that.... just saying..... Be bold and go for it.
Adorable. I have a lot of corks, too! I’ve seen this sort of thing done years and years ago, at craft shows and shops, so I’m not sure there is one person who originated the idea.
Thanks for letting me know. This is so much fun.
I love these! I missed the last video, so I’ll watch it next!
So much fun to give each bird a different personality.
Jackie! This one is an absolute amazing mosaic! You've out done yourself. I do see a bit of starry starry night. Congrats!
Thank you so much!
These are darling! Love them all, great idea with the corks. Are they importing grapes or actually growing them in Canada?
Thanks. Lots of grapes grown in Canada. We live in wine country in NS and also amazing wines out of Ontario and BC grown grapes.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie I'm shocked. I didn't realize your growing season would be long enough for wine grapes. Thank you.
Awesome! & so creative 😍 Keep shining! 🌟
Thank you!! 😊
I just wanted to tell you I'm so happy to find out how you use Kwik set adhesive caulk. To glue glass on glass! I've tried so many glues that didn't work. And your tips about letting it set long enough to set good. I made a picture and gave it to my daughter for her birthday yesterday. Thanks for the tips!!!! Never knew this adhesive could be so versatile!!!!!
I’m so glad it’s working for you. I’m impressed with how many uses there are for clear caulking.
I, too, enjoyed this video. I liked that you told us so much about the changes in the area. Everywhere I go, I hear how much the waterways change. It's a fact of life. It is important to enjoy all those changes. You did find some sweet treasures! I really enjoy all your videos! (I like your Herons)
Glad you enjoyed it! It’s fascinating to see the forces of nature.
I knew I saved all those corks for something! Thank you...
You bet! Enjoy
Very cute. Love the corks used.
Thanks
Wow, this is incredibly beautiful! Great glass finds! Appreciate taking us with you!
Glad you enjoyed. It’s a beautiful place.
Beautiful 👌👌👌
Thank you! Cheers!
So cute! Made me chuckle!
Excellent 😂
Excellent 😂
Wow, it's fantastic, love it!
Thanks so much.
Beautiful! Would E6000 work for this?
Thanks. This is a fun one. I’ve never used E6000 so I can’t comment on that. I’d advise checking if it would be flammable.
I think its beautiful!!!!
Thank you
Wow, this is great! I’ll be camping at Cedar Dunes for 5 nights in August! ❤
Oh lucky you. It’s a beauty place to camp.
@@SeaGlassArtbyJackie Thanks Jackie, looking forward to our visit, I know I won’t want to leave 🩵
I didn’t catch what kind of paint you use ? Was it acrylic?
Yes. Any quality acrylic works well.
I think its amazing. I have done a few pieces from watching you. Thank you!
I’m so glad you’re creating art like this. It’s a lot of fun.
Thanks for the walk on the beach. The sound is so calming.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
I love the video Jackie! My favourite place is by the water and I hope to get there this summer. Richard and I keep talking about going to PEI but never seem to get there. I hope this is the year. 🤗
Well worth the trip.
❤
I think color in the circles could give it more dimension .
Great idea. Thanks.
I think it’s amazing Jackie! I can’t imagine how you could make it any better! I love how the one swirl goes up and the other goes down, the vertical pieces of glass and the horizontal pieces. The different colors and textures with driftwood and shells are just stunning Jackie! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much.
You are the van Gogh of glass!
You are too kind.
I have been thinking on what I might try to suggest for you in this piece of your seaglass mosaic. It is perfect as it is, but you did ask. The sage green paint on the window frame, I wish it was a brighter color. The long strip of brown, is a lot of brown, maybe if it were broken up with just a little bit of green (trees or shrubs) in a couple spots. But honestly, I am a bit sorry to even try to find anything that could be different. It is art and a glorious creation. I watch and look forward to ALL your vids. They are SO inspirational. I finished a turtle mosaic recently and working on the layout of my biggest piece yet. We are so limited with colors (which is also the beauty of it) if we use the glass as we find it. I am wondering if another trip is needed to places where the glass is more abundant. But first, I am gonna use what I have -- what else is to be done with it? The glass should be used. hehehe. Jackie, Thanks for all! I love your works and all your videos. You are an angel.
I love all your comments and will give them serious consideration. Thank you so much. It is most helpful to know what others are seeing. Good luck on the hunt.
I think it’s beautiful as is! ❤
Thank you so much.
It’s stunning Jackie… I think I may have one more in me and it may now be a night sky 🙏🏻
I can’t wait to see what you make next. Thanks.
