A woman in Whitley Bay has wowed locals by fashioning unique jewellery and souvenirs out of sea glass, giving people the chance to keep part of a picturesque North East beach with them forever.
Rebecca Sidell, 46, moved to Whitley Bay from London nine years ago, and was instantly taken by the beauty of the North East coast.
When Rebecca, who is also a foster carer and teaching assistant, took her dogs for walks on Whitley Bay beach, sea glass hidden in the sand soon began to catch her eye.
