raw crystals as decor accessories

Lately I have been seeing a lot of raw quartz crystals, semi-precious stones used as decor accessories such as lamp bases, candle holders, book ends or just by itself. I just love their color, organic shape, beautiful texture and sparkly look. If you want to start collecting geodes, semi precious stones, crystals and minerals you may find them on ebay, etsy, local flea markets and specialty stores. Nowadays they also show up at some department and online stores. I found mine at HomeGoods, Marshalls, T.J.Maxx and ebay. These stones can also be expensive and sometimes overpriced. You need to do your homework before you buy one. I was not very into metaphysical and healing properties of these rocks but recently I have been reading about their meanings and it is certainly intriguing.



I found this gorgeous amethyst at Marshalls, who would have thought it? I read about amethyst's healing properties and it makes me feel good just looking at this beautiful piece! Also shown are mala prayer beads and Naga Kanya Nepal door handle from ebay, my favorites.



Here are some of my crystals surrounding buddha's feet. They came from HomeGoods, Marshalls, ebay. Love grouping my collections, they look more unified.



To give your air plants a really cool look, you can use these rocks as planters. This huge amethyst is also from HomeGoods.



In my bedroom a calcite crystal geode from HomeGoods twinkles on my side table at night.

I cannot finish this post without including some of the raw crystal rock decor accessories. Here are some of them for you to enjoy;

How about a coffee table? Love the geode idea but I am not sure about the shape of the glass.

Okay, this sink is a little stretch but how gorgeous would it be when the water hits, of course minus the faucet, the wall and the cabinet. I cannot imagine myself cleaning this sink:)

Another unique design idea. Looks great with concrete too. These amethyst clusters have sharp points, I am not sure how practical it would be in the kitchen.


What do you think about using raw crystals as decor accesories? How would you use it?
