For those asking about finding smooth river rocks, why bother? Use what you can find locally. Just try to mix and match so they look good together and stack appropriately for your area. I would think a good mix of different shapes, colors and types of rocks would be much more interesting and fun. I would just mix it up more. I have gathered some petrified wood over the years that I might use in one.
Suggestions please? I use flat glass beads in small areas and if they slide I use masking tape to hold them until the adhesive has dried. Use e glue and do one small area at a time, use a large empty coffee can to to put your bowling ball into while gluing your pieces � also a good idea to rough up the bowling ball surface first with heavily gritted sand paper � I used black grout as being out in the garden it is much less mainence to clean it each yr.
My Mosiac ball stays in the garden yr. I would love to make some stepping stones for my garden with coloured stones, flat glass stones etc. What is the best thing to use for the stones? Lovely site. Thank you. One of the best places to start is with simple concrete stepping stone from the home improvement store, like Home Depot. Hope that helps! I agree with Patti. Drilling through stone with a masonry bit is not that easy.
It takes more work than you think. I tried this and gave up. Try using water to lubricate the rock and wash away the grit as you drill. Just a small trickle. Battery operated or one that is safe around water.
I love the stacked stone and it gave me an idea to make a different type of fountain. Need a base and concrete bits. Would someone who has actually drilled through stone please tell me how you did it?
I use plastic kids balls from the dollar store and make a small hole at the top and fill with cement. After dry cut off the plastic balk.
