People have been telling stories on rock for thousands of years. Put this time-tested medium to use for yourself! Paint each of the stones with elements from a story you want to tell, bake them for a finish with more staying power, and put them in a bag. Regale your audience with a tale for the ages, as you pull each stone out and tell your story using the image prompts you painted on each stone. A creative way to express yourself and tell a memorable campfire fable! If you decide you don't want to keep your stones for the long haul, leave them around your neighborhood as a fun surprise for visitors. Kit includes 16 smooth stones, 12 acrylic paint pots, 2 paintbrushes, a drawstring bag, and instructions with storytelling tips. ~ Janine
