Here is a cool Arizona moss agate cabachon I made. Almost looks like a worried Alien trapped in the stone.

This is a stone that I received from Anita at the 04' rally. She had a bow full of small cabachons, tumbled stones and little crystals for the kids at her booth. She said it was just stuff she had for giving out and she didn't make them. I was looking through them and found this really cool one. It is one stone but the center is loose and spins. I received this before I was making cabachons but now I am thinking I can make one similiar but out of local material.
 Very cool how the center doesn't fal out but can move freely. I have my ideas on how they did this, but I would love to hear how you all think they made this?
