Here are just a few examples of how rocks and stones can become stylish, decorative items. Adding stones to any water-related home or yard feature is a great idea.
Most stones become even more beautiful when wet and colours appear to intensify.
Or, you can use a truckload of small stones to reduce weed growth in a less used area of a yard. Inside a pot, a layer of stones on the bottom assists drainage. A couple set on a window sill or counter draws attention to them, or a bunch can be put in a glass bowl on a table. Small stones can also be used as an accent in display cases or cabinets, or placed in shadow boxes to hang on the wall. A large and interesting rock can serve as a nice and heavy, natural-looking doorstop.
