Ever wonder what to do with all of those little tumbled chips ? The ones that are too small to do anything with ? Here's an old alcohol lamp that I no longer use for dopping. I also have several other small fancy glass bottles filled with tiny tumbles. They make great sun catchers sitting on the window sill.

Good way to use the little stuff! I hang suncatchers from the ceiling with a wire so they don't fall off the window. forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/index.cgi?board=creationtime&action=display&thread=51563Single-stem flower vases from the thrift store make good display vessels too. Fill them in layers, with each layer a different color. These creative uses of the tiny stuff, even just chips, make nice gifts people seem to appreciate.

That is a GREAT idea, Don! Right now, those chips all eventually end up on the bottom of the display bowls that my wife has bought for me. Great background for the photo, by the way. Paul

I have been doing the same with my bits and pieces. Need to find fancy jars like that.
