Sharing some easy and creative rock painting ideas! Painted rocks are such a fun, trendy and easy craft idea; this post is sharing some of my very favorite, and very easy, ideas for painting your own rocks!
Painted rocks are such a fun trend right now.
My kids love painting them, hiding them, and, most importantly, finding them!
It’s a great way to be creative AND encourage outdoor exploration at the same time. Painting and hiding rocks is also one of my favorite acts of kindness!
Rock painting ideas abound, and it’s always fun to be inspired by others’ creativity.
Rock Painting Supplies
All you need are a few very simple supplies.
You can buy a Rock Painting Kit and be ready to go, or you can gather flat rocks, paint brushes, paints, and Mod Podge to seal them (so that the elements don’t wash off your designs)!
What Paints Do You Use on Rocks?
I love acrylic paint or paint markers for rocks.
Acrylic paints are inexpensive, easy to find, and come in so many colors perfect for rock painting.
Acrylic paint pens are another affordable and fun choice!
Are You Supposed to Pick Up Painted Rocks?
You definitely can pick up and keep painted rocks that you find if you want!
Alternatively, you can find it and rehide it for someone else to stumble upon.
Personally, we love rehiding painted rocks that we find. It helps keep the fun going and is a great way to pay it forward.
