I would love to make over my regular bathroom sink with river rock. Any ideas on how, and what should I I use to seal it? Thanks!

Gee all the rocks I've seen actually sink.
Here is how to do a river rock backsplash... maybe it could be similar to how you'd do the sink and how you'd seal it? Good luck! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTBsYg8xqQo

If you mean to glue river rock in the sink itself. Any product you use will not work under water use.

While in theory the idea seems a plausible one, it may in fact not be depending on what you're trying to accomplish. You might do a bunch of research online and go from there.
There is tile that you can use. I've seen it on shower floors. I would think that would be the easiest & best route. Then you can seal it as you would for a shower.
Depending upon how much extra weight will be added during this beautiful idea you may need to shore the sink up underneath so that it does not pull away from the structures around it.
Hello there,
Do you intend to use it as a Hand basin in a bathroom - then maybe seal with a resin? Hope that's of some use.................
