Small Japanese Glass Fishing Floats & Sea Glass

I wanted to do a blog about the smaller Japanese Glass Fishing floats.  These are harder to find on the main island but can easily be found on a trip to Hokkaido (which is semi expensive).  They can be bought from local vendors but they don't look the same as the found ones...they look less authentic I guess.  At the last bazar we did end up purchasing a few different sized ones we didn't have like a cantaloupe sized one and a few more small ones to fill up my bucket.  I took some pictures of the small ones in my hand so you can get an idea of the size of the.  I also took pictures of the sea glass.

So beautiful! I love things like this. I have seen pictures of these before but never in person. I love all things glass...before I had kids I used to make stained glass windows.
