Rock Painting

Rock Painting

This extended amount of time indoors has brought out the creative soul and artist in lots of us. I’ve wandered outside of coloring to painting, and crocheting and collage decor, so many fun things to do while you are staying safe inside your home and in your yard which led our family to do some rock painting.

Stone Painting Time

A ton of people have turned to stone painting to beautiful their own yard and to leave words of hope and happiness scattered around for others. It’s also a fabulous family fun activity to share with your kids of all ages.

Rock Painting Supplies

The best paint to use on rocks is one that will last with weather, you can also seal them if you already have lots of acrylic paint sitting around the house that you’d like to use up.

We love using paint pens best. You can get the most detail and more vibrant colors and of course lots of them have glitter so that’s always a plus. It looks so pretty when they shimmer in the sun in your yard.

Sharpies

Sharpies are of course the least expensive markers around and everyone probably has several already floating around their house. The different sized nibs make detail work easy too

Don’t have any nice smooth flat rocks at your house? No problem, you can even buy those.
