What's the best part? YOU are the very first person EVER to see what's inside. How amazing is that?!
* HOW TO CRACK A GEODE *
Step 1: Place the GEODE in an old sock or with a rag over the top and place on a hard surface such as a brick or concrete.
Step 2: Aim for the centre with a hammer, hit softly to start with as some of the more hollow ones are delicate and you can obliterate them if hit too hard, increase pressure as needed if it is not breaking.
The weight of all crystals listed are approximate numbers only as no two scales are the same or either accurate.
