This is my latest DIY project. It did not turn out as great as I had hoped but I am still going to post the pictures and steps. I want you all to know I am in NO way perfect or GOOD at some of these DIY crafts. I just love to craft and be creative so I give things a shot and hope they come out okay.
If you read my living room post you may have noticed the Malachite prints on the wall. I was looking online for some more Malachite accents and everything I found was a little to pricey. So I figured why not just paint a regular damn rock? So I tried and below is what I ended up with....
I went outside and picked up two rocks. I cleaned them and let them dry.
I bought a foam brush, a can of water based polyurethane clear, some green craft paint, and some emerald green stain
I first painted the rocks with the emerald color. That was probably a mistake, I should have started lighter rather than darker. Anyway, the emerald paint had dried and then I squirting two small blobs of each other craft paint color on the rocks and smudging it around in a circular motion. Once the paint dried I added a clear coat of the Ply using a foam brush. I then added an additional clear coat just because I wanted to...
This is what I thought it would look like but it doesn't at all. Oh well!
