I painted these colorful rocks to my lil' cousin Shelby's 2nd birthday last weekend. They're a great way to teach kiddos to spell their name which, coincidentally, is every child's favorite word. These rocks were a huge hit with the grown ups but Shelby had her eye on something else...

My nephew Pete made Shelby a pet rock and blew my silly little alphabet rocks out of the water.

I was trumped by googly eyes. I shoulda seen it coming.

To make them we used acrylic paint on smooth river rocks and sealed them with a high shine acrylic sealer. You can make your own or contact me and I'll make some for you & you can just take credit for them. It's a win/win.
