Instructions

  1. Using your masking tape, simply mark off the desired geometric shapes on your rocks. (make sure edges are pressed down onto rock really well to prevent paint from seeping.)

  2. Once your first color is done, add more paint to create your next geometric plane. (You can repeat this step as often as you like to create a more intricate design.) I kept my rocks simple with only 2-3 colors! Have fun.
