Bahia agates are really high on my list of favorite tumbles. It is always hard to place an order from the rock shed without adding more of those. Nice looking batch you got there.

TheRock Thanks for the photos and they are really handsome. What are you going to do with them? I always want to know what folks do with all these fantastic tumbles because I need ideas what to do with mine.

I always want to know what folks do with all these fantastic tumbles because I need ideas what to do with mine. Why thank you all, RWA3006 my wife and I etch glass so we will be integrating the stones in with the glass we sell. We will be making Jewelry but for right now I am getting our Inventory built up for the stones. She does about 8 Shows a year and does pretty well at it. The Cases of glasses get pretty heavy so My Idea was the Jewelry items would be much lighter. The beach glass she finds sells as fast as she can make it people see some lace or other pretty cabs done up they will go nuts. So that's our plans.

I always want to know what folks do with all these fantastic tumbles because I need ideas what to do with mine. I just donated about 10-15 pounds of tumbles to my neighbor, so she could give them to her kid's elementary school teachers. The rocks will be placed into a "prize box" where students can pick an item when the teacher wants to reward them for doing something good. I was informed after the fact that the teachers loved the rocks, and kids have been picking them over candy.

That's a thought, being I am a PM and a Shriner with many trips to the Crippled Children's Hospital I am sure the children there will enjoy them.

It almost brings a tear to my eye when I think about what kids hold most precious. I was absolutely blown away that polished rocks would trump candy. Who in the world would have thought that? But, it appears that at least locally, that is the case. Cheers to you if you have an additional avenue for your rocks. .
