SEA GLASS: GLASS BOTTLES’ SECOND LIFE Sea glass is made from the magic of the sea. It usually comes from glass bottles that are thrown into the water. Each piece of sea glass looks different, and sea glass is often seen on art pieces. The pictures below explain how sea glass is born. 1 Glass bottles are thrown as garbage into the sea. 2 When these bottles ride the waves of the sea, they hit each other or other garbage in the sea and break into small pieces of glass. 3 Pieces of glass are pushed by sea water and move along the sea floor. The sharp pieces slowly become rounder and rounder. 4 After tens or hundreds of years in the sea, the pieces of glass grow an ice-like white color on the outside and become sea glass. 5 Sea glass is finally pushed up to the beach. 6 Artists collect pieces of sea glass and put them into their works. However, people now seldom use glass to make bottles and bowls—paper bowls and cups have become more popular these days. This means there are fewer glass items in the sea, so less and less sea glass will be found in the future.
