Enough stones have accumulated from hiking trails for a shelf in the closet, a bit too many... does anyone have an idea how to ''''collect'''' them so they'll be in a visible place... ???

I also bring them from every summit conquered. I find somehow the most suitable ones, which I then clean and sand the bottom with a belt sander so they are flat and stand nicely. Then with a red marker (for drawing on stone) I write the summit name and altitude and also with white and red marker (for drawing on stone) I draw the mark. I wait a couple of minutes to dry and then with a brush apply transparent stone glaze all over the stone. Wait to dry and on the back write the date when I was on the summit. This way I get an extremely nice authentic souvenir of the conquered summit. I have all the stones as decoration in the room and in various places around the house. I also give some away because it's an extremely nice and special gift. Markers 1 to 2 mm wide, brushes and transparent stone glaze are available in ARTIS stores. More info at www.artis-trgovina.si Best regards.

Our family has been collecting stones from reached summits for years . Among them are also stones from some pastures and from visits to natural sights-Dovžan gorge, etc. Last time I photographed them and I can't believe how many have accumulated. But dad keeps them on a special shelf in the apiary, where he gathers new strength.

Well I collect only stones from conquered peaks over 2000m when I visit them the first time I write the peak, height and date.
