How cute! lol!

Too funny! I'll bet your grandson was quite impressed with his new friends!

They are a fine looking couple!! Bet the GS was delighted!! Jan

LOL, I think dressing rocks means you've reached a new level of creativity in the GJ forum. What a sweet GM you are.

Have you ever painted rocks with him? My grandkids went through an "everybody needs a paperweight" phase and painted every rock they could get their hands on. Sometimes they glued googly eyes on the rocks as well. At 2, I'm SURE your grandson would have fun with a rock, paint and a brush...got time for him to do one for his Mom for Mothers' Day?

Another time, we wrote things on the back of rocks and left them writing side down in public places. They said simple things like "Hi" and silly things like "Hey! Put me back, I was sleeping!" and (for some reason) historical notes like "Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence" and then laid them beside a tree on a public sidewalk or at the edge of a planting bed in a parking lot. Then, when we went back to those places, they'd look to see if "their" rock was gone...most of the time it was which was a never-ending delight to them! Doesn't take much to entertain kids, does it?

But, that's the fun part of being a grandma, isn't it? ...doing silly, fun things with the GK's. Looks like YOU have the grandma role down pat with your dressed-up rocks!

grandmathyme...I must take up your suggestion. Josiah would love to take part in the project. Thanks.

They are just as cute as they can be! What fun that must be for the two of you!

Gmathyme and others,

I happen to stumble on this site the other day. This gal is fabulous and she gives precious instructions on her website, so nice of this italian artist.

Fantastic link...I will be doing a few of those. Thanks

I love painted rocks. Thanks for the link! My daughter is an artist and has made several animal rocks for me...one is a little fox and another is a cat. Unfortunately, the sealer didn't hold up, so they're pretty faded now. She mentioned just the other day that when she gets caught up on other things, she wants to paint a few more rocks. I told her to put ME on her list of recipients! (Bossy, aren't i?)

I saw this a few yrs ago, it's HUGE(4ft across)!!! At the front of a driveway!

Here is a link that might be useful: {{gwi:145408}}

WOW that thing is big.....good way of covering something up that is large that possibly had nasty graffitti under it.
