I would like to use these same pebbles on my pine mantel that surrounds my indoor gas fireplace. What kind of glue and grout will take the heat ? I have been buying bags of pebbles for months to do this project. I like to have something no one else has !

I would take great caution when using this as a bath mat. Having crossed many creeks and streams in my bare feet, I can tell you that wet pebbles are extremely slippery!!!

I have made this mat before as well,and thought people should know, that it takes way more than 2 bags of river rocks! I used 13 bags! The rocks in the bags are of various shapes and sizes ( obviously ) but most rocks I found were too bulbous or oddly shaped to use in the mat. Once I was finished though, the mat did look awesome! I just thought you should be aware that the cost of the mat may be more than $3!! good luck!!

I fell in love with this idea to make into a bath mat (found it on Pinterst). After reading the comments, I want to make it into a doormat for my house. I’d like to see the neighborhood cats shred that mat.

As a preschool teacher aide I see some fun Christmas gifts in the future, too.

Thank you all for your commented ideas.

Oooh! I’m going for a rustic-ish cabin-esque theme in my living room, and this would be a great idea for making various accent items like coasters. I have cheap plastic coasters that I can totally transform by using these rocks. Thanks for the inspiration!

@Lynn-You could use a rock tumbler…not sure how expensive they are but I have seen them in the kids section at Wal-Mart.

I have some of the smaller river stone pebbles and was thinking about using them on old, worn out ‘hot pads’ to make something to set hot pans or casserole dishes on at the table!
