Hello and Welcome to Crystal's and Fossil's by Barb!
My name is Barbara Terrazas and this is my Website. Every Crystal, Fossil and Rock you see here was collected, cleaned and prepared by me. I have been collecting for about 15 years here in beautiful Colorado Springs, Colorado. My main idea in beginning my own site was to show off my Collection's and share them with anyone interested.
I have decided to add captions to some and yes even a Price tag to them all. Why?
Because I'm tired of being on Welfare and can no longer work. Because I still feel a need to support myself and my son without aid. None of these prices is set in stone, all are OBO and would for me more of a Donation where you receive a Beautiful Gift for your Contribution.
Because my Collections have always been for my Own pleasure and because I have never been able to Afford anything cool, each and every item on this site was most likely cleaned Only with Water. I also use Only Paint Brushes of various sizes and textures. My items are not "set" on anything nor do they come with that "Glass like Shine". I don't use filler's or anything like that either.
The things you will find here don't come from any Mines. They come from years of walking miles in all kinds of weather and learning by trial and error. I guess you could call most Rough though I have worked on them all. Anything here can be purchased to add as-is for a Beautiful Natural Piece of Art or to continue on where I left off by adding your own Touch. Many items can be turned into beautiful or interesting Jewelry, Belt Buckles or anything your Imagination can dream up.
