Father's Day Paperweight

Father's Day Paperweight
                                     

level= ●○○○

Supplies needed
  • River Rocks
  • Acrylic paint
  • small paintbrushes
  • Clear matte Spray (opt.)
Gather the kiddies to make this cute paperweight or garden decoration.
  1. Paint a basecoat on a rock. I used blue.
  2. Now, paint stripes, polka dots, etc. in a similar color. I used green.
  3. With black acrylic paint, write a cute message like "Dad rocks!'
  4. (opt.)- You can spray the rock with clear matte spray to protect the design once it's dry.
  5. Small River Rocks


    Once you master this design, you and your little ones can paint ladybugs, flowers, soccer balls, and anything else you can imagine!
  6. Helpful Hints- Make sure you lay out an old tablecloth and wear aprons.
