Both lovely. .That smaller than a penny heart must have been a big effort! Tiny is hard to do. Thanks.

I didn't realize green tree agate had a kool minty flavor. I'll have to remember to keep some in my pocket for breath emergencies (like having garlic or sardines for lunch and then wearing a face mask).
Nice work. I like your method for making hearts. Pretty clever.

Nothing like a Mohsheart I'll second the "post of the year" recommendation! @mohs these are amazing! Absolutely mind-boggling you were able to achieve this beauty in such small specimens! Love the day/night opaly blue!!!

Thanks jasoninsd. I'll trade any status for your exuberance. I wonder how many hearts Ed has made since the 18th century.
