Pastiche Family Portal HomePoetry Stones Craft Project

Tao carved stone with pendant loop - Jocelyn Hoch, ebb and flow creations. by Dionna Sanchez

For those of you who love to work with rocks and stones, here's a neat idea for a project you can create and give to someone as a gift: poetry stones.

It is very basic and simple yet when created, is a lasting memory of your love for someone else and done in an elegant, classy way.

All you need are some fairly small stones - about 25 to 50 depending on how many you would like to create. Wash the stones and let dry. Then use a gold, glitter marker and start writing words on each stone.

If you know how to write in calligraphy, then go for it - otherwise just write as neat as you possibly can. Make sure you include words that can be used in different sentences such as "the", "a", "and", etc.

Editors Note: If you have some skill with a hobby carving tool like a Dremel, you can etch or carve images and words into stones similar to the designs shown in the stone pendant photograph on this page.

After the stones have dried you can place them in an elegant basket or an old-fashioned jar decorated with ribbons and lace. It is your choice. Enjoy watching your special friend or family member as they open this heartwarming gift of the heart.
