I needed some paperweights to use on my table at the art market, so I thought I would create little natural 'art works' , to look cute while being useful!
Here is what you will need;
A beautiful hill country river, with a rocky riverbed.........
With lots of gorgeous views to inspire you...
A cute red head 'helper' to find the best stones........
And to help test which stones 'throw the best'.......
Some of this and a fine paintbrush....
Select your favorite stones........
And , voila, cute paperweights,or plant rocks,or... place 3 on a windowsill ( will look very 'Zen')
A littl bit'o'fun
Cheers , Helen
PS ,( only problem is people keep wanting to buy them off the table!)
