Open this app by mistake, forget what I meant to open instead, scroll for two minutes, post rocks, disappear again

Bonus pic of trying to sort all the UV reactives

Little bitty petrified wood pieces, mookaite, unicorn jasper, and ruby in zoisite

Idk exactly what the first one is, flower agate, Chinese writing stone, polychrome jasper

Currently trying the "weekly pill organizer" for the 4th time for exactly this reason

Hell yeah

nw

Got some incredible labradorite in my second polished batch as well as some amazonite

Snakeskin jasper, more flower agate, more moss agate, and a look at what one full batch from the vibratory tumbler looks like

First batch of labradorite and rainbow moonstone. Calling it mostly successful though not perfect

They're like walking trees, maybe we just have to graft other things to them

Not tumbled yet but I love this vesuvianite I cut earlier today

It's probably just a large country the size of a small country

This is your fault by the way

Picture jasper, flower agate, unakite, and not really sure what the last one is but it had a lot of little fossils in it.

Listen lady I'm not going to be spending like a madman in this economy when I already have an extension cord and wire strippers at home

I will now be exclusively fucking with scam callers rather than ignoring the calls and blocking numbers. The longest I've managed so far before they hang up is 56 seconds

That skill is something of a work in progress lmao. Gluing on a loop or something I can handle though

I've done a little bit of jewelry too, but mostly with beads. If I get pieces in a good size and shape I could do some pendants or wire wrapping

I have a bowl and some little display shelves on my desk for favorites. I've been giving some away as gifts, and once I start getting out and about in the spring I was planning on taking a couple with me and leaving them to be found.

Hell yeah I love that. Get to do your own thing with the colors and combinations

Mexican green calcite, moss agates, Jupiter jasper, red jasper with quartz

Hell yeah. Doing any of the dyeing yourself?

This weekend my rock tumbling capacity increased to 17lbs so I feel this

Oh my god you're now in the yarn production game? We've really taken the latest fixations and run with them

Thank you! Will have more to come assuming I can remember to add to this

I found out my pants were dry clean only AFTER removing the tags. Those would have gone back I don't need that in my life

Crazy lace agate, king cobra jasper, blue tigers eye, Bahia agates

Now I have to return things, and who knows how this will impact my Kohl's cash smh

Buying a light box to take glamour shots of my rocks.

Chrome chalcedony, blue-grey agate, dragons blood jasper, chevron amethyst
