I placed an order too! Who did you choose shipping with? How long did it take? I choose Fedex as it was the cheaper one. Looking forward to getting Kim's box along with Redwoodrocks' african rough...woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!

I looked out the window and there was the Fedex truck! Woohoo!!! I opened up my box and what a nice surprise. These rocks are much prettier in your hand. They all are unique and have a sparkle to them! Not sure which is my favorite as they all are so colorful. But what I really want to know are what are the 3 cute little rocks you enclosed? They are so neat too. Thanks so much Kim! It was worth the wait and I'm sure I will be ordering more in time.

bob and debs i'm glad they got there and that you like them. i can't wait to see some finished ones.
lol debs now that is amazing. they took 2 days to pick it up from an office 45 minutes from me but were able to get it from ms to iowa in the same amount of time. the little ones are brazilian agate nodules.

I slabbed the swirldstone today, looked like sodalite with a little pink, only did half, and the last I cut you would have never thought it came from the same stone mauve red, blue, and yellow with some clear quartz thrown in.. The red and white and black I slabbed the wife wants the counters or bathroom done in, at a cost of $10,00.00 or abouts I'd bet. it's all great. Will try to get some pics but no promises

Two Thumbs up for Rocky! Asked about some rocks earlier this week, finalized the ordered and the rocks were waiting for me when I got home on Friday.
Two days from the delta of Mississippi to the hills above Santa Cruz, CA!
Thanks Kim!

I just wanted to say have any of you checked out Kim's website. She has alot of her beautiful rock rough pictured there. I just wanted to add the yellow jasper is really much more beautiful in person. It has shades of yellow swirled throughout the stone. The picture doesn't really capture the beauty of this stone. If you buy some, like I have you will be very pleased with your purchase. I know I am and I will be buying some more of it before it sells out!  |
