Flower Motif Sea Rocks



There's something about sea rocks.




There's something most comforting about feeling their smoothness, their weight and the heat they give off from being under the beating sun in the palm of your hand.




There's also something to be said about carrying a marker around with you.....




These are quite large stones, not pebbles. The one that looks like a heart is about 9cm, or just below 4 inches, at its widest part.




The floral motif is a recurring one for me. One that I never tire of.




Easy to make and lots of fun, drawing rocks is one of the perks of a rocky beach.




If you would like one of these rocks for your very own -they're great paperweights!-  just leave me a comment below saying so. 
If there's more than one people interested, I'll make a mini draw.

  7. I would love one! I pick up rocks whenever we travel, when I'm at the lake, etc. I keep a bowl of them on my dresser. Your flower patterns are beautiful!

  9. these are fantastic Gia!! I've collected a few sea pebbles to paint but have not gotten around to do it, I love your idea of using just a marker!
    Simple things lead to great results :-)

  11. They are so pretty. I live near the beach and I think a little woven basket with a small collection of these would be a perfect decoration. I'd love to have one.

  15. Lovely. I would like to make my own. What kind of pen do you recommend?

  16. Thanks, Martha!
    I used a permanent marker. I usually get the Faber Castell kind because that's what we have readily available here and they are quality markers.
    I guess that any permanent maker would do.
