Create, Hide & Hunt Painted Pebbles in Elsworth
Create your own pebble to hide round the village at home or just join the hunt for pebbles in Elsworth. You can post a photo of your pebble and any you find to our Facebook page Elsworth Rocks
Please don't hide pebbles on farmland or on sports fields, happy hunting!
https://www.facebook.com/elsworthrocks/
If you find a pebble, photograph it, post it on Facebook if you'd like then hide it again.
How to create your own pebble:
1. Get a pebble
2. Paint your pebble (we used acrylic paint)
3. Waterproof your pebble (we used this gloss spray)
4. Write Elsworth Rocks in permanent marker on the back
5. Hide your rock
An internet search will give you lots of other ideas for paint types, waterproofing and inspiration of what to paint!
