Handpainted Decorative Project Painted Valentine’s Day Beach Rock![]() By Maria Chatzi Level of difficulty: Moderate Age: Teens & Adults Materials:
Instructions:1 Use your scissors to cut out a heart shape from your masking tape. Stick it on our rock, as close to the center as possible. 2 Take the red acrylic paint and paint the space all around the heart shape (see fig 1). Wait till the paint is dry. 3 When the paint has dried, peel off the heart shape, very carefully — you may need the help of craft knife (take a look at fig 2). 4 Paint the heart white with the white acrylic paint, as shown in fig 3. When the paint is dry make a design with dots and swirls, using the pens for artists. Wait for the ink to dry very well. 5 After the ink has dried, add some final touches of golden acrylic paint to your design and a wreath of golden strokes on the periphery of the red paint. For steps 4 and 5, see fig 4. Wait for the paint to dry. 6 Add protective varnish. Wait for the varnish to dry and your Handpainted Valentine’s Day Decorative Beach Rock is ready to give as a gift to a special person in your life (a lover, a friend, a member of your family, or someone who has had an impact on you). The handpainted beach rock could stand alone, decorating a coffee table, or it could be used as a paperweight. • © 2014 Maria Chatzi. All rights reserved.
