Was not going to post this, but figured it might be helpful for newbies. “Vintage” jamesp glass. Amethyst I collected in Thunder Bay. Removed the crystals from the large specimen. Tumbled. I added bell caps from the Rock Shed. These are now ready for bracelet charms or necklace pendants. After taking the photos, realized there is a little more glue clean up to do. I love the black glass cab. It almost has rock like features. glass 2 amethy 2

Looking good! What type of glue are you using for the caps? I have a new load of Banded Amethyst and was thinking of using some of the caps I purchased to turn a few of the stones into pendants. Seeing yours inspires me. Thank you.

Apologize for the neglect. Your pendants look fabulous.

The snake skin was a signed hand fused plate by local artist found in thrift shop. The middle is from a hand blown lamp shade by Atlanta glass blower Matt Janke. A common pattern of his. The far right red and white was from a fine hand blown Polish vase found at thrift. The middle one was melted to a melt blob. All 3 were master tumbled by the most arrogant he he tumbler jamesp. Polish red/white vase at lower left. Purchased 1/7/18
