Unicorn Painted Rock Craft Idea

Sharing is caring!

Today I have a fantastic Unicorn Painted Rock Craft Idea to share. Unicorns are a popular phenomenon at the moment, especially for kids and also for adults. In fact, I created a fantastic Unicorn gift guide recently with a few fabulous Unicorn gift ideas for kids.

This, however, is a fun craft you could paint with kids or for kids. It’s super easy and simple and lots of fun. I do hope you enjoy.

Unicorn Painted Rock Craft Idea

This is such a fun painted rock idea to do with your children.  I think it would be ideal for a fun kids birthday party, or for an afternoon craft with the children on the weekend. 

You could even make these to give as gifts to their friends for a special event or just because!

What You Need to Make Your Unicorn Painted Rock

One rock stone

1 lead pencil

Posca Pens

Sketch Paper

Paint Tray (optional)

Uni-posca Paint Marker Pen – Medium Point – Set of 15 (PC-5M15C)Margo 30lb. Decorative Pebbles River Rocks Colored Stones Medium Snow White Pebbles 1 in. to 2 in.BIC Pencil Xtra Sparkle Mechanical Pencil, Colorful Barrel, Medium Point (0.7 mm), 48-Count

How to Make a Unicorn Painted Rock

First I drew my Unicorn design on some sketch paper using my Bic Pencil.

I then painted a white background on my rock stone with the white posca pen.

Next, I used my lead pencil to draw the Unicorn onto the rock stone.

I began by painting the Unicorns hoofs yellow, her nose pink and then began adding different Posca paint colours to her main.

I wanted a rainbow Unicorn so used as many bright coloured Posca Pens as I could find. I then added a gold paint for the Unicorns horn.

I always like to outline my rock stone characters with black Posca paint and this is the part I find tricky. I added white to the nose and gave the unicorn an eye.

Finally, I used the Posca pens to add detailed dots and lines to the stone painting.

Then I added black lines to the Unicorns horn and the painting was complete.

Displaying Your Painted Rock Craft

I am really pleased with the way this stone turned out. It looks super cute and has been added to my collection.  You could easily display these on a shelf, windowsill, or my favorite idea is to add them to your garden as a fun decoration.  Remember to add your initials and the date to the back of your rock to remember when you made them.

Next, I am looking at painting some Disney themed Rock stones. I think that would be fun to do for a Disney party or to decorate a kids bedroom that is Disney themed.  There are so many amazing painted rock ideas that you can add to your garden!
