Hi Catherine;

    I don't know about a manufacturer, but it's cerainly easy to make
    the stuff. Just get some old bottles and jars, put on your safety
    glasses (preferably a face shield) and smash them up.  Pick up an
    inexpensive tumbler and carborundum abraisives, or just use good old
    sand, and tumble them to your satisfaction.  Call any of the hundreds
    of lapidary suppliers for more specific information about supplies
    and techniques.  I'm not sure you're going to find anyone making the
    stuff, but I could be wrong.
