Monster Painted Rocks

Materials:

• Two rocks that are at least larger than 3 inches wide and tall (washed and dried)

TIP: try to get one rock that is larger than the other. Try to have the smaller rock be more round than the larger one.

• Craft paint in the colors white, light green, black, light blue, dark blue, and grey.
• Medium sized paint brush
• Very thin paint brush

Instructions:

• If you have dark rocks paint them white.

• On the smaller, rounder rock paint a light green circle on the top.

• Use the white paint to make a smaller circle inside of the green one. Make a small black circle inside the white one still leaving room for adding a ring of blue later.
• Paint a black smile under the eye and once dry, add a row of teeth on the top and bottom.

• On the larger rock paint the top light blue on more of an oval shape. The edges can be a bit messy because they will need to look like hair. TIP: The top of Sully’s head should be smaller than the bottom because his face is shaped like a pear. While you have the blue paint out, make a blue circle around Mike’s black pupil in his eye.

• Take the white paint and make two small circles for eyes near the top of the blue oval. Use the white paint to also make a small white dot in Mikes eye at the top right area. Use the dark blue paint to make bushy eyebrows and a nose (see photo).

• Take the black paint and make Sully’ smile and pupils. Using the white, fill in his teeth and a dot on each pupil near the top right of his pupil. Add some grey in between Sully’s teeth and to make horns on both monster’s heads as shown in the photo.

• Once these are completely dry they are ready to be set out as decor in your home or garden.
