What I meant to say is Pendants of March. These stated out as a UV-10 batch back in February and ended up as pendants in March. This is a mixed batch of Bay of Fundy material and some of the usual favourites from The Rock Shed. If most of these sell, I’ll be re-investing in a larger rotary tumbler to feed the ever-hungry UV-10. Just shy of 100 Top of board Bottom of board And the rest We still have 2 feet of snow and ice in the woods, but tomorrow will be a few degrees above freezing and sunny. I hope to be an early bird at Partridge Island. Haven’t seen the Bay since last year. Darryl.

Looking good Darryl! I was also wondering about the bails; are they drilled posts?
Good luck with the sales!

All my pendants are drilled posts. I bought a Dremel Workstation which truns your hand-held Dremel into a drill press. I guess I will have to update my previous post on How to drill a Pendant.

Darryl, they look great, I especially like the way you made the cards, because everyone asks what every stone is and now they can take that home and actually remember, LOL, I keep telling Tony we have to do that. That was an especially attractive design. Are the colored dots to correspond with pricing? Great job that was a lot of work, I hope you sell them all!

Mary Ann - The cards identify the rock and the location of discovery. This will boost interest amongst "the locals" who have connections to the area. There is a little geoligic trivia in each card.
In your case, you can point everyone to your website and boost future sales. Good luck and please steal the idea.
Darryl.
