Christmas Rock Painting Tips:
- Choose your rock first! Think about what kind of painting you'd like to do, and choose a rock that will look good with the colors and shapes you've chosen. Think about what kind of paint would work best on your rock—you might want to use glitter or metallic paint if your subject is shiny or reflective.
- Go with acrylic paints. They're easy to clean up, they dry quickly, and they're much less expensive than other kinds of paint. Plus, if it gets on your hands or clothes, it'll wash out easily.
- Use a stencil or pattern as inspiration for your design. You can find tons of free stencils online that will help you create an awesome design without much effort!
- If you want to change colors halfway through, just mix them together on paper first. This way you won't waste any paint and can make sure the color is exactly what you want before putting it on your rocks!
- Use food coloring! You can use food coloring to add color to your rocks, but we recommend using it sparingly. We've found that the best way to add color is by dabbing a little bit of paint onto your rock with a brush and then adding some food coloring. This gives a more subtle look than just dipping the whole rock in food coloring.
- Use glitter glue! Glitter glue adds sparkle and shine to any project! You can use it on rocks by dabbing some glue onto them before adding paint or drawing on them—or both! The possibilities are endless here; try mixing glitter glue with other colors or even making designs on top of your rock with glitter glue before painting
- Don't forget about how much fun it is to layer different shades over each other for extra dimension! Don't be afraid to experiment!
While these are fun, cute designs—you should also use them to get in the holiday spirit. There's nothing quite like sitting around a campfire in the winter and telling stories with your family and friends to get you into the spirit of Christmas. Add some shortcuts to make it easier on yourself and paint some of these cute holiday rock designs to add a little rustic charm to your home decor this year.
I hope you have fun with these cute Christmas rock painting ideas. Start now and finish just in time for your Christmas party.

Love your ideas. Even without a tutorial I feel I could make most of the rocks. I just need a little bit of inspiration and your samples did the trick.

I'm really glad that I found these ideas this morning. I'm always looking for different things to paint on rocks but mostly I really like painting on sand dollars. Thank you and I look forward to seeing more
