Step-by-step

Step 1

You can add your designs to both dark and light-coloured pebbles. Alternatively, first spray your stones in edding permanent spray in whatever colour you wish. Before doing so, wipe your pebbles with a damp cloth and leave them to dry. Next activate your gloss paint markers as follows: shake the marker vigorously with the cap still on until you can clearly hear the mixing ball rattling inside the marker. Now, carefully press the tip of the marker up and down several times until ink appears in the nib. Test the marker on a piece of scrap paper.

Step 2

Now for the fun part! Draw whatever you fancy: white spider webs, amusing or scary faces, ghosts or bats. If you want to use several different colours, always let the first colour dry before carrying on with another to prevent colours from accidentally mixing.
