Lately, I have been obsessed with the idea of rock painting. There are so many cute ideas on Pinterest!
One of my favorites is the idea to paint Waldo on a rock. You could then hide him somewhere in the yard and do a real-life Where’s Waldo? game!
I also love these Kindness Rocks from Crafts Unleashed. After painting them with happy messages, they hid them at a park and playground for others to find. What a nice way to spread a little anonymous kindness.
Lastly, I think this one is a super fun idea from Mary Brio Rose. Take a rock and paint section dividers and then hide it. As people find it, they will fill in another square and hide it themselves. I think it’s so nice to think of a rock as travelling along and making people smile. Who knows where it would end up?
All of these ideas are really great ways to take a craft and use it to have fun with people you know, or to brighten a stranger’s day, both of which are wonderful ideas in this strange time.
I’ve created a Studio rock art Pinterest board, which includes the above, as well as some other really fun rock painting ideas. Stay crafty!
