- Use stones preferably with a smooth texture
- Before starting wash and dry the stones very well
- First draw with a pencil the shape you want
- Use acrylic or tempera paint to paint the stones, you can also use permanent markers or special oil-based markers that are special for painting stone (or glass)
- Use brushes or markers of various sizes
- Apply a couple of coats of paint but let it dry well between one pass and the other
- Use a layer of clear varnish or some special glue that is used to decoupage Mod Podge type
