I’ll be honest, I have never painted anything outside of the wall of my bedroom or stenciling my denim jacket, but I really wanted to tap into my creativity to help me focus more on upcycling items I thrift as well as items I already have In my closet.

DC Goodwill has so many good seashore themed jewelry and other items, online and off. I also have an impressive collection of links to their gold, sea glass, and seashell jewels on SGW. To say nothing of all the other shore-themed treasures there, and elsewhere!
