Tuesday Treasure

Two Sea Treasures today, I'm not exactly sure what they are. I think they're dried jellyfish, but one of them might be a mermaid's purse of some kind.Next time I go to the beach, I must take them back with me to the shell museum, maybe someone there can tell me exactly what they are. Nevertheless, they're treasures to me, from the sea!!

they are great! love the name Mermaid's purse.
Lucky you for winning that lovely fabric! Can't wait to see the rest of the stitching and what that fabric becomes.

I always look forward to your treasures from the deep (and shallows). They are all so unusual.

I think I saw one like this when we went to Florida this summer. I didn't know what it was so I asked my SIL and she told me the name, but I forgot. She said that it gets washed up to the beach and can't go back to the sea so they die. Sure are very interesting creatures.

Hello. Weirdly, these showed up when I was searching for dried jellyfish. Long story. Anyway, if you're still monitoring this blog seven years on, at least one of these is a fish's swim bladder. Maybe both are; I'm not sure.

Have a good day!
