Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: Painted Rocks {again}

let him who is without sin cast the first stone - John 8:7

Sometimes I see something on Pinterest that is so gorgeous it stops me in my tracks. That happened with this diy from giochi di carta. I couldn't stop staring at the images and since it seemed to be a quick and easy diy, I thought, "I can totally do this." Hello - painting rocks is NOT quick or easy. Since my SIL was here last week, I asked if she wanted to paint some rocks with me (we have about 2 billion in our backyard) while my little rocked naptime in her hammock. "Sure" was her simple and prompt response. I'm guessing she too thought, "how hard can it be?" Ha!  Getting those straight lines and an even texture is not for the faint of heart. We painted all afternoon. Not. Kidding. But, I love how they turned out...

What's the latest DIY you tackled? Or are you one of those who pins and pins but never seems to execute? (you are not alone friend - not alone) xo
