Turn a pile of stones into ornamental artworks that will spruce up a garden bed, a potted plant or a windowsill.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Small stones
Acrylic paint and brushes | |
| Seasons: Spring, Summer | |
| Materials: nature objects, paints | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Start by scouting in the backyard for smooth stones in various shapes and sizes. |
| 2. | Imagine what each stone's shape lends itself to. For example, a wide, rounded stone would make a good fat cat. Or perhaps a group of stones will inspire a family of critters like a brood of ducklings. |
| 3. | Use the paints to realize your artistic vision. |
Variations
Use stones to create colorful and helpful markers for a
vegetable or flower garden. Simply paint a carrot, some peas, or
maybe a sunflower on a stone to place at the end of a plant's
row.
