Today my daughter and I painted rocks for her garden as markers for the various vegetables she is planning to grow. We chose several rocks from our back yard, made ourselves some tea, then set ourselves up with paints and brushes and scrolled through Pinterest looking for inspiration. There were so many ideas (isn't there always on Pinterest?) that it was difficult at first to decide.

 |
| Finally we decided to paint all the rocks black as a base coat for a consistent look |
 |
| We used acrylic paint |
 |
| and tried to find rock shapes that suited our subject matter |
 |
| Here is our final harvest of garden rocks. |
This was a really lovely way to spend a dull and chilly afternoon together. It was a fun and easy activity that let us be creative with what we had on hand, without a big time commitment and only a few paint brushes to clean up afterwards. Within a couple of hours we had everything completed and her garden will look pretty all summer long.
Thank you for stopping by My Turquoise Kettle Life today.
Wishing each of you a beautiful day,
Sandra
