Curios and Trinkets, part the fourteenth

In which Chala resorts to actually stringing some beads to slow down the rate at which she burns through chain (although there's a lot of chain in this entry, too). There is also a lot of her swearing at an uncooperative camera, but we'll gloss over that bit.

Onyx, candy jade, pumice, and crab agate.

Mother of pearl and jasper.

Lots and lots of moss agate.

Quartz and crab agate.

Hematite and watery aqua glass with a faint coppery sheen. Camera butchery ahoy.

Glass.

Agate and adventurine. Kind of tempted to remove the branch sections 'cause they like to flip over.

Jasper and serpentine.

Turquoise. Easily the most awkward word to type in the English language.

Quartz, rose quartz, and lepidolite.

Screwing around with wire. Stone unknown.

Agate.

Glass.

Crab agate.

Serpentine. New picture, old pieces.

Agate. Really irritating to untangle.

And something made with no intention of letting anyone else have it, ever.
