I am almost done with having my bathroom shower redone and was wanting to get a couple of small pieces of granite, marble, etc., for a shower curb and for the top of a half wall. Anyone have a source for getting some small pieces without having to buy the whole slab?

The dumpster behind any custom granite/marble fabrication shop.
I once picked up enough scraps to mosaic-tile a 12x12 patio in an attractive random pattern/color scheme. Formed it up with 2x4s, laid a single row of landscape edging bricks along the inside, a base of bedding gravel, arranged the granite/marble scraps in a random jigsaw puzzle leaving finger-width grout gaps, brushed sanded mortar mix into the joints, watered gently. Done.
