What pretty stones. I currently have garden stones lining the smaller garden spot in the back yard and I had never thought about painting them. Keeping in step with nature and painting them with nature scenes is an awesome idea.

I am one of those people that likes to pay attention to the small details and this is one of the smallest. I think it is awesome to take something that gets over looked and up cycle it to be a part of the whole. Great idea and I love the stencils you used here.

These will make a pretty accent to my flower garden. It's funny, but I am always picking up rocks and shells on my vacation (I collected rocks when I was a kid). I don't think I have any rocks large enough for this project, but I'll start looking. I love the look of those stencils and those blue paints.
