If you’re looking for a slightly spooky, fantastically fun craft for Halloween, painted rock eyeballs are just the right project. You can make them more creepy realistic or more cute cartoonish to fit your style by varying the detail of your rock painting.
I had so much fun painting these! After each one I had a little giggle at how much I enjoyed making each one different.
What to do with Halloween Painted Rock Eyeballs?
- Add to a glass jar or bowl in a Halloween vignette.
- Pop into a potted plant for an unexpected Halloween surprise.
- Put back into landscaping rock for people to notice.
- Hide near a path for someone to find.
- Hot Glue onto a black wreath for a door decoration (or use the same painting technique on ping-pong balls for less weight).
