    Painted stones

    Hi guys.
    A new pursuit my wife and i pursue.I collect stones from near beach and we paint them to hide for children to find and keep ir rehide.So far cartoon and t.v characters,I find it a nice distraction and kids love it.Warms my heart if they enjoy them.Sadly we cant have children and its something we like to do.Try and bring some joy into young lives.
    Rich.

    Kind thing to do Richard, where do you hide them, back on the beach or other spots?
    Cheers, Steven

        I hide them around seafront gardens and give the mini hunters clues on a facebook page for our area.Neighbours kids call me Rich rockie man and wife the stone fairy.

          I find it rewarding and kids get clues on a facebook page for local stone finding.At this time seriously fallen out of love with Sculpting and figures.Production halted for foresseable im afraid.

                  A novel idea Richard, would never have thought of that.
