Hearts – Step 1
Choose a flat, smooth rock with a pleasing shape and wash well before using. Let dry completely and then pick a color scheme. Find a starting point for your design
Step 2
Using the rock’s shape and size as a guide, paint a pattern of hearts on the surface. Add different shades of red for variety and place little white dots in the corner of your designs to simulate a glint of light bouncing off the surface.
Step 3
Let each section dry completely before moving on and painting something new.Once the main pattern is complete, fill in the blank spaces with dot art.
Step 4
Use all all-purpose clear lacquer spray to protect and seal your finished stone.
