Guest Picks: 20 Ways With Agate
The stone is fabled to have powerful healing properties, but it's a fact that it can beautify a home
Incorporating agate into your home's decor allows you to add a wide variety of color, and may have healing properties as well. Many traditions imbue this beautiful stone with magical protective qualities, including the ability to cure the stings of scorpions and the bites of snakes, soothe the mind, prevent contagion, still thunder and lightning, promote eloquence and secure the favor of the powerful. I mostly love the organic beauty these slices of stone bring to the home. — Jami from Imagine Design Blog
