There's something about sea rocks.
There's something most comforting about feeling their smoothness, their weight and the heat they give off from being under the beating sun in the palm of your hand.
There's also something to be said about carrying a marker around with you.....
These are quite large stones, not pebbles. The one that looks like a heart is about 9cm, or just below 4 inches, at its widest part.
The floral motif is a recurring one for me. One that I never tire of.
Easy to make and lots of fun, drawing rocks is one of the perks of a rocky beach.
If you would like one of these rocks for your very own -they're great paperweights!- just leave me a comment below saying so.
If there's more than one people interested, I'll make a mini draw.

My daughter loves to draw pictures on rocks that we find at the creek near our house.
ReplyDeleteThose are so cool! I really want to learn how to do that type of geometric drawing.
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I never thought to doodle on a rock.
ReplyDeleteI would love one! I pick up rocks whenever we travel, when I'm at the lake, etc. I keep a bowl of them on my dresser. Your flower patterns are beautiful!

so beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeletePretty, I very much like the patterns you drew on them.
ReplyDeletethese are fantastic Gia!! I've collected a few sea pebbles to paint but have not gotten around to do it, I love your idea of using just a marker!
ReplyDeleteSimple things lead to great results :-)
Love these! They are so simple yet so beautiful. I'd love to try it!
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty. I live near the beach and I think a little woven basket with a small collection of these would be a perfect decoration. I'd love to have one.
ReplyDeleteYou've been featured on homework. Thank you for sharing your project on The Inspiration Board.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. Simple and beautiful.

ReplyDeleteLovely. I would like to make my own. What kind of pen do you recommend?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Martha!
ReplyDeleteI used a permanent marker. I usually get the Faber Castell kind because that's what we have readily available here and they are quality markers.
I guess that any permanent maker would do.
Gorgeous! They remind me of beautiful Hindu mehndi designs

You are so talented! I would love to have one! :)
ps...you should try the designs on your brooches and bags! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Peach Patch!
ReplyDeleteUsing the motif on bags and brooches is a great idea! I'll have to try it.
Oops, sorry for the typo, Peace Patch.....
ReplyDeleteI love them!!!
ReplyDeleteAre they water-proof? I should try, for my garden :)
I added a pocket to the shorts I made with your fabric, thanks so much:
