Collecting Rocks

rock souvenirs























We collect rocks when traveling and it can become a bit of a display challenge. This wire planter is perfect for large rocks.

I try to group colors and or locations. These have subtle green and blue shades. The dragonfly bowl is a majolica pattern from the 90s.

The pink quartz looks pretty in a vintage blue bowl. I also fill coconut shells, sea shells, fossil bowls, bottles, planters and a gold prospecting panning dish with fools gold.

crystals

















Crystals end up on shelves and they are glossy dust magnets. One of my favorites is a multicolored one that resembles the striations in the dessert hillsides.
