Author: Julie We love our Firecrystals! They look beautiful in our fireplace, and Steven was a great help over the phone regarding how much to buy. We did end up having to get a smaller U-ring here in L.A. so we will be returning the one Steven suggested. And we are also finding with the Moulin Rouge Firecrystals, there was not enough red in it for us, so we are buying some extra crystals in red. Suggestion: Find a color, like clear, on sale, and do the first layer of your fireplace or pit with that, saving the more expensive colors for the top. They suggest this and it is good advice. We bought a 40 lb box of clear on sale and that saved us a lot.
