You know I bring shards like that home all the time because I enjoy looking at them and dreaming of how the bottle would be whole. I have been contemplating a new media that will take the art world and antique world by storm. How about mounting our broken finds in a slab of plaster of paris and hanging it on the wall as a wall sculpture. We can call it " Digger Art". Any one else have some creative suggestions to put our best shards to good use. I really would like to hear them !

That is a great idea! I am going to start doing that too. I always find shards that I look at and throw to the side. But that is a real good idea with those special ones that you wish you found whole. Thanks for the idea.[:D]
