My little girl likes to collect smooth glass that has been washed up on our beach, she has some beautiful colors and we would like to polish them up in to a pendant or such. Can someone tell us how we could do this?

  1. It would be difficult for pieces so small to do by hand, but you can try a rock tumbler working with progressively finer grit and then finishing off with a Cerium oxide slurry either in the tumbler or by hand on a polishing cloth.

    One of the appeals of beach glass is that it is all scratched up and smoothed out by the ocean sands. I'd leave it like it is.
