rose scented souveniors Southwestern

[Guest guest]

Glitz, I ordered some lava stones a while back from a supplier. You can

tint them and add fragrance to them. Is this what you are talking about?

I am pretty sure they are lava. I will pull them out tonight and make sure

but I was intrigued when I saw they could colored, etc. and that is why I

ordered them. Like most things, they went into my supply closet for a

" rainy day " project. The only other possibility I can think of is " scented

stones " which was I made a lot of last year, they were tinted and scented

and sound much like the rose bead recipe. Carol A2

Hmmmmm lava is usually black to my knowledge so this is not what I am

talking about :-) Sandstone is just that. It is stone that is made from

sand and kinda grainy and coarse and soft. Got me with tinting Lava rock

LOL. Glitz

We're getting closer!!! The product is not grainy,

it's smooth, so shouldn't be sand BUT that does sound

very interesting and like something I might want to

try!

The rock you are referring to is the roserock. I live

in Noble OK, the roserock capital of the world. So I

do know that it's not an actual roserock. Thanks guys!

pumice-is, volcanic glass formed by the solidification of lava that is

permeated with gas bubbles. Usually found at the surface of a lava flow, it

is colorless or light gray and has the general appearance of a rock froth

i found this in the dictionary. so pumice is lava and it is porous so maybe

it can be scented? just my .02 tamika

We quarry our sandstone from two separate sites in Santa Barbara. Both

quarries are in-house operations, and yield approximately 1,000 tons of

consistent, quality stone per month. All of our sandstone has a hard, tight

grain that makes it easy to work with.

this is from a site whose company does sandstone finishes on houses. sand

stone is a whole organic rock material not a mixture of sand and water or

flour etc. i am only saying this so none thinks they can mix this stuff up in

thier kitchen LOL!!! it comes in slabs similar to limestone or natural

slatejust my .02 tamika

Tamika, well, thank you. I was beginning to feel like a real dummy. The

grey stone I purchased was called lava rock, they have been made uniform

to the size of rock salt and I ordered them because I was intrigued in that

they can be colored and scented. People then place them in dishes, maybe

around candles or just alone and they are used as air fresheners. Glitz

had me thinking I was nuts. When I was in Hawaii I saw this stuff only in

large chunks like I have in my yard. The rose colored stones however may

be something else. The stuff I have is porous and on the light side in

weight, just large granules. Carol A2

I'm sorry I made you feel nuts--that was not my intention :-) Was trying to

be helpful- Glitz slinking back to the corner to lurk again. Glitz

Hi Glitz - thanks for the comment regarding the lava rock, it was a

baffling question but once the recipe for the sand rock was posted,

assuming that is what this rose scented rock is, I noticed it is

practically the same recipe for making Scented Stones that went around a

year or so ago, did you notice. The only difference is the Sand Clay

obviously calls for sand while the scented stones recipe used flour I

believe. I tried to find it last night but with my piles of recipes, it

was impossible without a major effort. Well, I hope the puzzle is solved.

Incidentally, have you ever seen the red colored lava rock people use in

their yards (we have lots in my area of Michigan) well, this stuff I have

is the same texture as that, only more uniform little granules but porous

and spongy looking. Maybe they don't use this stuff in your neck of the

woods. Have a great day. Carol A2

There is a plaster of paris kit you can buy at s- or if you know how

to make it from scratch even better- you just add color and scent, soaking in

the eo or fo would probably work best to give the final product the longest

lasting smell.
