Cut glass crafts Sign In/Join

I'm new to this board. Today a crystal cut glass bowl I'm sentimental about got broken. I haven't looked to see if it's smashed to smithereens but I know it's not repairable.
Any suggestions for use in crafts or do I just close my eyes and chuck it?

There is always a way to use broken anything.

- get some quick crete from the home improvement store and using a pie tin (or any shaped tin you like) use the shards along with some marbles and other fun pieces to make a stepping stone for your garden. *Quik Crete can be colored with acrylic paint by mixing it in.

- Pieces can be sanded or tumbled to make jewelry.

The following sites might help give you some more ideas.
