Crystal Identification Help?

Hi everyone! My name is Ruth and i was once a very big fan of crystals. Unfortunately, it's been around 8 years since i used them - so i have totally forgotten what they are! Identification help would be greatly appreciated. m.imgur.com/a/kzKBy

I think we need a little clarification on what you mean by identify. Do you have crystals you need to find out what they are or are you simply trying to get advice on what crystal to use ?

Thank you all for your help so far!! I'm sorry to be picky but I would really like if you could describe them in rows?
Like L-R front to back or whatever?? That would be really helpful!

I know a few but am uncertain on several of them without being able to see them in person. Some look like they may have a metallic coloring to them like what Tiger's Eye has. I'll still take a shot.
In order from Left to Right, Top to Bottom:

Unknown, very close to Tiger's Eye
Unknown, very likely glass
Rose Quartz
Dalmation Stone/Dalmation Jasper
Glass
Unknown, possibly smoky quartz
Glass
Magnesite or Howlite
Unknown, possibly smoky quartz
Rose quartz
Pink-dyed agate
Unknown
Unknown, very likely blue-dyed agate
Glass
Uknown, very likely purple-dyed agate
Banded agate
Unknown, very likely jasper
Unknown, possibly smoky quartz
Unknown, possibly jet or - if you hold it up to the light and light shows through as smoky-grey - an apache tear form of obsidian
Unknown, possibly carnelian
Unknown, very likely agate

The ones with the sort of bright shine to them (it is especially flashy when turned in the light) and rich color are definitely glass, and if the red one up top has that as well, it also is glass. I actually just happened to inherit a batch of assorted stones quite like this, including the glass pieces, so am now rather familiar with those pieces in particular.
