From the world of Riverbend

River Stones

Smooth stones wrapped in soft wool, using nothing more complicated than warm water, soap, and your hands. The finished stones feel lovely to hold and make a nice addition to a river small world, sensory play setup, or collection of little woodland treasures. You can keep the colours natural and try to mimic the stones you might find beside a real river, or completely ignore that idea and make something much more colourful. There are no river-stone police.
