5 out of 5 starsI stumbled on this accidentally but my mom and son collect shells that they hold onto until they get back to their chairs to throw into a ziplock bag. I feel like this might make their shell collecting a little more convenient for both of them. It’s so cute, even came with some sea glass to get them started!

5 out of 5 starsI highly recommend this book especially for sea glass lovers and those that appreciate the authentic gifts from the ocean. I have bought this book several times as gifts and always receive compliments. The seller includes a card and a bag to encourage us to do our part in keeping our beaches clean!

5 out of 5 starsThis little beach bag and treasure comb is of great quality. I love the color! I cannot speak highly enough of this seller! Patty is so sweet! She even included a few extra surprises for our egg hunt (this was bought for a prize for our family egg hunt). I know the kiddos will be extremely excited to win this prize! Will definitely buy from Patty again... maybe even for myself this time! LOL
