Preparation

  • Secure it with craft glue or use a hot glue gun to keep it in place.

Adding Personality

  • Attach googly eyes to the front of the rock using glue for adhesion.
  • Cut out shapes from additional fabric to make a mouth or nose for your pet rock.

Finishing Touches

  • Feel free to add any extra decorations, like little hats made from scrap fabric or painted designs on the rock.
  • Let everything dry and set.
