Crystals and Garden Alters

Crystals are energy conduits, (this is proven in science) and I need not labor the point furtherer.  I wanted that "amplified" energy in my garden, for my plants yes, but selfishly, I wanted to bask in whatever harmony was rendered or transmitted health benefits....ya, I'm one of those, deal with it!
GARDEN ENERGY
 The first project I wanted to do was  a "obelisk" with a crystal at it's peak, well, that didn't happen. I settled on making a pyramid as I could not get the narrowness I desired when making the wooden form for the obelisk, too freak-en fragile. So here is my compromise, I poured in layers of cement with black pigment and pure to create a marbled appearance. This piece is about 10 years old and shows no ware thus far.

This simple idea maybe my favorite of all, about 6 inches tall with a crystal  embedded in the spiral mount. This was cured in a plastic cup for the mold, then carefully sculpted the next day.  For me, this is an indoor or out door object, and if you have an alter.....
                                    
I hide these around the garden, just cuz!
