Craft Lightning is here again!!!! This month the theme is Painted Rocks. While in Phoenix this past January for AFCI, I met this awesome painted rocks lady Carissa. She has some amazing talents with her painted rocks. They bring all the joy! You can check her painted rocks out on Instagram: ilovepaintedrocks

I made this Painted Feather rock. Feathers represent freedom, inspiration and spirit. When you see a feather on the ground, don’t you just want to pick it up?!?! Here is how I made it:

Materials:

• A rock (I just found one in my neighborhood, but you could buy one!)
• Paints (I used spray paint for the base and then some other paints I had lying around)
• Paint Brushes
• Tray for the paint (I just used a paper plate)
• Something to put your rock on while you are painting and it dries
• Pencil to draw an outline

Clean the rock to make sure it’s free of any dirt or leaves. I had to do this since I found mine out in the neighborhood.

Paint the rock with your base color and allow to dry. TIP: While you are waiting for it to dry, get your paints ready, especially if you mixing colors.

Using a pencil, draw a light outline of your design.

Paint your design and allow to dry.

Now you can go out into the world and put it where you’d like someone to find it! Or you could just add it to your own garden.
