INSPIRATIONAL
ROCKS
We went to
the river for morning tea and collected our rocks.
We are lucky
as we live close to the river (at the moment its very low) I did notice that you can buy bags
of rocks at the bargain shops or landscaping nurseries and even hardware
stores.
Then all we needed was the markers. I bought these uni Paint Markers from the newsagent. They seem to work really well on the rocks.

I gave the
rocks a wash and they were completely dry before we started decorating them.
At first it
was hard to think of inspirational words/phrases to paint on the rocks so I
googled some, once we began the words/phrases keep rolling on their own and so
did our patterns!!
Some of the
words/patterns I did the layered effect and found that if you used the white
first as the base the end result just looked better. When I did the white
on top the other colour seem to come through and it looked a bit fuzzy and not
as clean.
We were very
pleased with the end result.
WHAT DOES
ONE DO WITH A LOTS OF INSPIRATIONAL ROCKS??
I took the
dog for a walk on some bush walking tracks around our local lookout SO every
now and again I placed one of the rocks on the track for all to see. Hopefully
they were seen and ‘inspired’ others to have a great day.
(Serenas rocks
were ‘too precious’ to do anything with other than keeping!! Lol )
P.S. A week
later and most of the rocks were still on the bush walking tracks!!
