How to create
a painted rock picture stand
Follow our step by step guide
In this project you’ll learn how to create the perfect picture stand for all your photos using household rocks!
Step 1: Paint your rock
Choose your acrylic paint colour (or mix colours together to create a colour you like) and using your paint brush paint the top and side surfaces of your rock.
Step 2: Decorate
Once your rock is dry, use the metallic markers to decorate your rock. You can decorate it with spots or shapes or stripes – anything you like!
Step 3: Wrap it
Take your chenille stem and wrap around the middle of the rock and twist to secure.
Step 4: Get bendy
Cut off one end of the chenille stem with scissors and then bend the remaining step into a loop.
Step 5: Add a photo
Choose your favourite photo or picture and place in the loop and press tight. Now you’ve created the perfect picture stand. Swap out the photo regularly or make a rock stand for each of your favourite photos!
