My Selfmade Runes

Some years ago I incidentally found some beautiful pebbles in the driveway of my friends neighbour.  I rang the door and asked if I could have some of those stones for decoration. They allowed it but perhaps they  thought that I was very picky because I had to examine every pebble  before  it landed in my pocket. Twenty four of the most smooth and even pebbles  were to become my rune set. Al they needed was a symbol of the Futhark drawn on them with a permanent marker . I am still very happy with them and wouldn't want another set ever

  5. Love them! I think I'll start my own pebble collection. Runes are something I want to begin to work with, but I don't want to use wood, or glass, etc. I love the smooth, round stones. Thanks for sharing!

  6. Thanks, they do look rather cute! It is an very good system and not so difficult to learn. In fact I've learned it before I dare to take up a deck of cards (78 meanings to remember!!!)
