Fun stuff- rock paintings in the garden
Painted rocks are great additions to the garden, they can mimic animals,
add a bit of comedy or fairytale-like elements to the landscape.
The best paint for rocks is Acrylic as it won’t wash off in the rain, and it adheres really well to
most surfaces. There are plenty of designs available on the internet or let the rock’s surface inspire
you. Smooth rocks or stones with a rounded shape are the easiest, but any shape or surface is fine.
Mimi has ladybirds, fishermen and even cat stones nestled in pots, beside plants, or on window
ledges. Painted rocks brighten the garden and add a fun charm to it too. Text by SC, Photos by Mimi
