Painted and Polished Rocks!

 I love painting rocks!

I grew up in Utah and river washed stones were easy to find!

It's so fun and great for kids too!

 I found this one that looked like an ice cream cone...

 so I painted it...and this little boy came to my house the other day and seriously tried to eat it!

 This was the first rock I painted when I was about 10...Wow, they hold up for a long time!!

 And I found this one last year...it looks like a worry stone!

I love rocks!  I used a rock tumbler kind of like this one!

I loved it...then for some reason we parted with the tumbler in a move...
But, here are the rocks I did!  :)

I love how some of them are clear like glass--okay, maybe hard to tell from the picture...

Now we've moved across the country...North Carolina to be exact!
And the rocks here are rough and pointy...not good for painting!
I need to get another tumbler--that might solve my rough rock dilemma!

Linking up to THESE parties this week!
