I've always had a fascination with painted rocks. My aunt used to paint for Royal Crown Derby and she painted the most beautiful things, including a large stone, which we use as a doorstop. With all the trending on Pinterest about painted rocks I had to have a go. This pin in particular inspired me. A long search of the garden later... This is what I did: Clean the rocks well with a toothbrush. Remove any sand or dirt I freehanded the pictures but you could draw them on in pencil first I used a fine rigger brush and acrylic paint to paint the design. Finally, I coated them in a thin layer of glossy Mod Podge. Here's the finished result in the lovely Tulipwood bowl that Mr made for me.
