The leap from house furnishings to jewelry is, somewhat disconcertingly, less of a leap and more of a short hop...for now that the agate coasters are resting on various tables (looking lovely though, as Mr. Heb pointed out, not fulfilling their role in the practical sense...as condensation tends to collect on the outside of a glass...pool on the surface of the coaster...and then flow onto the tabletop) the beauty of the stone has encouraged me to look for some wearable options.

Like...one of Brook&Lyn's one-of-a-kind, agate and rope necklaces...

...or a pair of raw crystal studs from Urban Outfitters...

Though the most fiscally responsible option would be to take one of the malfunctioning coasters...and introduce it to a glue gun and a length of rope...in an attempt to recreate Brook&Lyn's neckpiece...
