Heart Rock Art

April 15, 2014

Remember how I mentioned my boys have been collecting rocks in the backyard? Well, my oldest found this perfect heart shaped rock! And then we lost it…but then we found it again! I had to do something special with it. My husband I celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary this past weekend and I thought that framing the heart rock with our wedding date would be a nice way to honor the day. This is a simple idea that you could use a variety of materials for. For instance, you could make a yarn heart or a fabric heart. And use paint or number stickers for the date and maybe even a piece of stained or distressed wood instead of a shadow box. If I can find more heart rocks I will make 3 more – one for each day my kids were born. I think they will be perfect on a gallery wall with other framed photos of our family!

Materials:
– Heart rock. If you can find any rocks shaped like hearts (they don’t have to be perfect) you can buy them HERE on Ebay.
– Shadow Box Frame. Mine is 6×6 inches.
– Wooden buttons. Here are the ones I bought —> 100pcs Mixed Wooden Buttons in Bulk Buttons for Crafts.
– Burlap or a piece of fabric to cover the back of your frame/shadow box.
– Glue gun

Cut burlap or fabric to cover the back piece of your shadow box.
Glue burlap/fabric on with glue gun. Arrange rock and numbers and glue them on as well. I used the pins that came with the shadow box to separate the numbers in our wedding date.
And that is all there is to it! I think these would make beautiful gift for a wedding or other special occasion. Would love to see if you make your own version with different materials!

    What a sweet project. And It's way more meaningful to use the heart rock that big brother found rather than to purchase it elsewhere. 🙂

    Thank you so much for this article… I’ve been collecting lovely, smooth stones and want to paint animals like sleeping cats, and frame it all, and since it’s my first time, I decided to google for tips. I came across your article and I immediately enjoyed what I was seeing. I have to say, I had trouble getting through the intro when the sharpies made their way across my screen! (that was really funny & creative). Love your sense of humor and thanks for the article!

    دستگاه بلوک زن چیست؟
    همان‌طور که می‌دانید بتن یکی از اصلی‌ترین مصالح ساخت سازه‌های مختلف به شمار می‌آید و در بسیاری از بخش‌های یک سازه لازم است برای استحکام بیشتر از بلوک‌های سیمانی استفاده شود. در گذشته این بلوک‌های سیمانی به صورت دستی ساخته می‌شد؛ یعنی دستگاه از یک موتور برخوردار بود که حالت ویبره را ایجاد می‌کرد و کار اصلی یعنی هدایت مواد و تولید بلوک سیمانی را برعهده داشت؛ به طوری که با استفاده از این دستگاه اپراتور می‌توانست در هر ساعت حدود 500 تا 700 بلوک سیمانی تولید نماید. مدتی بعدتر دستگاه بلوک زنی اتوماتیک طراحی و ساخته شد و مورد استفاده قرار گرفت که طبیعتا با بکارگیری آن کار اپراتور آسان‌تر شده و راندمان کاری افزایش پیدا کرد؛ به طوری که در یک ساعت می‌توانست بتن سرمد تعداد بسیار بیشتری بلوک سیمانی تولید نماید.

    This is such a sweet and meaningful idea—simple, personal, and full of heart (literally!). I love how you turned a backyard discovery into a lasting keepsake. Using the heart rock with your wedding date makes it so special, and the idea of creating one for each child’s birthday is just beautiful. This would make such a touching anniversary or baby shower gift, too. Thank you for the inspiration—I’m definitely keeping an eye out for heart rocks now!

    Absolutely love the creativity in your Heart Rock Art! It’s amazing how simple shapes can convey such deep emotion. While exploring local history, I often use the Richmond public access
    resources to see how art and culture intersect with community events. Your work really captures that same sense of connection and storytelling. Keep sharing these inspiring pieces!

    This artwork is truly inspiring and captures such a unique energy. It reminds me of how details matter, whether in art or research. For anyone trying to navigate legal matters, resources like Spokane court records can be incredibly helpful for accurate and up-to-date information. It’s fascinating to see the connections between creativity and structure in different areas.
