A very simple procedure it takes to make this painted rocks design that looks too good placed in a garden. Collect some long and thin stones and one big stone. Now glue those long-thin stones on the bigger stone. Now paint eyes on all the stones, or before sticking stones paint them entirely in whatever colors you want, and then make eyes on top of it. You can go for some other decoration as well, based upon your imagination.

Garden Rock Caterpillar is a craft that you must make with your children. It will help add some garden interest in your children, and it looks fantastic. All you need for this project are some stones, and paint. Take six rocks, one goes for the head and the rest five for the caterpillar’s body.

Choose some fun colors and striking patterns to draw on each rock. Paint a face on the rock that is supposed to be the head, and then stick all the rocks behind. Stick two pebbles on each side of every rock that will look like caterpillar’s small legs. For the antennas, stick two little twigs on its head.
