- Hello! Welcome back to Welsh in Wellies -or welcome if you're new here! I'm Francesca and this channel is all about my seaglass hunting and mudlarking adventures with my salty sea dog, Bear.
This week’s video is answering your questions about where the colourful and unique Seaham Multis found in my last two videos REALLY come from! There’s a lot of mis-information out there so make sure you let me know what YOU think down in the comments!
Not sponsored, not an advert - just pointing you to some good info!

Don’t forget to subscribe if you aren’t already! I’m heading back to Seaham VERY soon!
born and bred sunderland lad here,when i was a bairn there was loads sea glass on roker and seaburn beach stones and fossils we never thought much of it at the time,im sure some still wash up in places,check out sunderland glasswork museum ,sunderland was famous for its glass and ship building and coal mining,like many northeast places
Thank you for the information, I really enjoyed reading about the history and where all the different colours come from.
I’v just got back from Seaham and was lucky enough to find two tiny pieces of malty glass 👏👏
That’s awesome! I hope you had a great time!
We were in Seaham a few days ago, Mainly walking our Beagle Monty. This time we went to Blast beach. Less glass to find, but the glass you do find is usually larger than Seaham Hall beach, plus, less people go there for some reason. Probably due to access, I doubt there is any disabled access at all. Most of the glass was one colour, but they were a bit bigger! I found something that looks like a bottle stopper. How ever, a lot of teens go down there to drink and make barbeques, so some of the glass you find is actually new....lol
Blast beach is lovely I just haven’t filmed there yet! Not much chance of Multis but I love the big aquas! Glad you had a good time
Thank you for the info! I love your pup! I used to have a Newfie and she was the best dog ever……..❤
She’s my love ❤️
Randomly your videos showed up on my recommendations a few days ago, i had no idea sea glass was a thing or that seaham was some kind of mecca for it till i watched few videos a couple days ago. despite living only 10 minutes away from seaham, but i was enjoying a walk along the beach today watching the dolphins hunt in the shallows and got talking to an old chap walking his dog, i mention i had just discover sea glass, and he literally gave the same explanation
Amazing! Are you going to start a sea glass collection now you know about it? It’s addictive!
@@welshinwellies i will keep eye for multis from now on that's for sure
Very interesting and informative i enjoy learning history about your country...🐩🐕🇨🇦🇺🇸💛
Glad you enjoyed it!
* Thank you ~ that makes perfect sense.. The glass would not move Against the Current.. Wish I could go there & hunt Sea Glass.. Your delight is so infectious it makes me want to go to England & Hunt them..
Very informative, and informative
You’ve got to love bear
So interesting I have been to this beach when I lived close by I now live in Cumbria thank you so much x
Hope you enjoyed it!
Well you learn something new every day 👍🏻🙂. Thank you I’ll be checking out the Facebook page too, ohh Bear ❤️
Fascinating isn’t it! See you on the Facebook group ☺️ and hi from Bear too!
Can’t wait for round 2!!!
It’s coming so soon! I’m very excited.
We are coming to Seaham in May of 2024. Any tips or advice you can share about what to take with me and places to eat? I am so excited to go there and find my first seaglass!
Absolutely take a couple of rakes with you - the shingle can be so tough on your hands! I have a Seaham playlist so you can watch my hunts there. I’d say just manage your expectations- the Multis are HARD to find. They’re not just laying everywhere and there’s lots of competition with people coming away disappointed. My tip is try and get there early as possible to beat the crowd and also find out the tide times, stick a pair of wellies on and walk the shallows. You’ll grab stuff then as it gets dropped off by the waves!
Oh and places to eat - Seaton Lane Inn and also the marina has a cute pancake place ❤️
enjoyed the video
Fortunately, I live about 45 mins away. Only usually visit when looking for colour. I find other sea glass else where. Do you use baby oil, etc, to get the best look or leave as is frosted? Great channel, not as easy as it looks, making content 😊
Yes I do! Clean with dish soap and water then polish with baby oil 😊
* Good grief.. I thought the Frost was what made it Sea Glass...
@Leslye Schoenhuth Leave if that's your thing. However, to get the colour showing at its best oils need to be used. Suppose it depends on what you're using for. I don't oil everything, just my special pieces.
