One of my favorite hobbies is painting friendship rocks. Some years ago, I found my first ever Friendship Rock in a local park. Due to the recent loss of a loved one, I was walking and crying when I happened to see the little rock, painted with a kitty, along my path. It took me out of my grief for a few moments and made me smile. I knew right then I had to learn to paint similar rocks myself and leave about, so I might put a smile on someone's face. So I began researching, learned the technique, and started creating rocks to share. I hide the rocks on the local greenway for others to find. I put a notice on the back of the rock to either rehide or keep. I also add my local rock painting Facebook group location, so the person finding the rock can share there if they wish. I've had reports that my rocks have traveled to California and even overseas to Scotland. It's a real delight knowing that my efforts are reaching people all over the globe. I have other hobbies, but I genuinely love painting these adorable little rocks and the satisfaction of knowing they might make a difference in someone's day.
Oh, they are sooo adorable! I have painted some and left in my local town, as well. Its so fun to see them around!! I need to do more. (If I only took the time haha) I love how you've brought the colors out onto your page with the flowers and sprinkles. *You're very talented!
 
Wow, wonderful story and amazing rocks! Wow! You're extremely talented! And to know they've made they way through out the world! Wonderful! As is your page. Wonderful way to show off your talent!
 
It's a very nice story and a nice hobby.
I really like the little girl with the red dress: she is so cute

They are wonderful! I love the idea of finding a friendship rock. I am certain they have and will brighten many days. Love the two kitties hugging each other. Would love to see (maybe a page) or read about the people who have found your rocks.
 
Wow, those rocks are gorgeous! You are quite talented and I can easily imagine the rocks putting smiles on the faces of people who find them. It's hard to pick a favorite but I think I'll go with the two birds and "harmony" just because I like the sentiment. I like the seemingly simple background here, too, and the multi-color sprinkles.
