Glass gem bits, baubles and polymer clay

Today I picked up the oodles and oodles of glass gems my friend Kevin Midgley so patiently custom made for me.

Kevin's work has been featured on the front covers of magazines, such as 'Chatelaine' and 'Food and Wine' as well as being frequently found in fine recipe books and restaurants. If you are looking for Christmas presents such as fabulous Art Glass platters or even the most glowing kinds of dichroic gem earrings or necklaces, go visit his studio and/or the link above.

You're probably wondering what I will do with these little gems?!

I had googled for glass rectangles on the net, but couldn't find anything other than the common glass baubles/drops. I wanted some plain glass rectangles measuring between 10mm x 15mm-20mm. These are for my upcoming project, based on an idea I've had in my sketch book since 2000 but never followed up on...until now.
Want to know what I will do with these?!...
