Hello there from the Netherlands! I've been lurking from time to time on this forum, but finally decided to jump in and become a member. I love rocks - and every once in a while I even manage to make some half-decent looking jewellery.

Hey, another European! Hello and welcome from Slovenia. We might not be a kingdom, but we're MUCH smaller than you!

A large part of the Netherlands consists of drained marshes and what used to be the bottom of the sea (drained with a little help of those famous windmills in the past). So it's rare to find anything interesting; fossils and bits of jasper and agate in some parts of the country, if you're lucky. I certainly wouldn't go on a rock trip to the Netherlands if I lived in the U.S. - you'd be sorely disappointed, I'm afraid.

I may have exaggerated by calling my poor attempts at jewellery-making half-decent - let's make that 5-10% decent. If one fine day my pieces approach anything like "decent" status I may have the courage to actually show them.

Welcome from Virginia! I just saw you in the cab the slab contest with some great entries! I would humbly suggest that you post your work. It's really a great way to boost your confidence and muse and to get some feedback. Before you know it, you'll be improving effortlessly. Everybody starts somewhere and we all know that. Besides, we love the eye candy.
