this is the ultimate summer craft. why? cause rocks are everywhere!!!!
when i started this roundup I didn’t realize what an art rock painting is!!! there are some AMAZING ones in here!!!! So this is a craft for kids AND adults!!!
these would be fun to throw in a teacher present!
a plant i can’t kill…
this would be great for sight words!!!
these would be so fun in fish tank
paint rocks gold and hide in a sand box!
this would look so good as a bookend!
Stones painted as strawberries when put around strawberry plants in the spring will keep birds from eating your berries when they ripen because the birds will think the ripened berries are stones (which is nice..but i just think their adorable!)
cute animals (source)
and if you aren’t big on paint…
try HOT rocks...with melted crayons!

so, this is great, but for a beginner like me can you spell out the steps into is there a prep for the rock other than washing with water…and what kind of paint works best on them..that would be really really helpful…thanks!

This is a really cool idea. But you never answered the one person’s question above and it is my question. What kind of paint do you use? You never give an illustration of how you paint one rock which has several colors.
