For all Minion fans out there: these painted Minion rocks or stones make a super cute and simple craft.
You will need
- Some flat river stones (or as flat as you can get them)
- Paint and paintbrushes
- Clear spray varnish
- Black marker
How to make your Minion
- Make sure to wash your stones so that they are free of dust and dirt.
- Start by painting half the stones yellow to make the heads of the Minions and let them dry.
- Paint the bodies blue and allow them to dry. Once the stones are completely dry, use white paint to add the eyes and a black marker to outline the eyes and draw the mouth.
- Spray with varnish to keep the stones from chipping and to give them a lovely glossy finish.
Tip: If you live near the ocean, collect stones and pebbles from the beach to create minions with unusual shapes − your tot will love searching for the perfect stones. Your garden supply store will also have a supply of stones and rocks to choose from.
