A nice walk in the park...

Yesterday was a very beautiful Fall day.  My husband, son and myself went to the beach for a walk and later to Highland park.  The conservatory had it's 100 year anniversary and they had free admission going on for the weekend, so the three of us walked thru looking at the beautiful flowers and live turtles they had in the spring fountains.  While there I took some handpainted stones to hide for a person to find, hoping that it'll bring a smile for this beautiful Fall day.  I'm hoping that any person that found one would comment on how they felt when it was found and that I was able to brighten someones day. Or if they left it in another location for a person to find.

Have a Great Day!!

A nice walk in the park...

The weather was nice and sunny, but still a bit chilly.  The heavy snow that came up the east coast missed us, boy were we lucky.  The three of us went for a nice walk outside at Highland Park, my husband and son went ahead while I went around placing handpainted stones where they could be found by someone, and hoping to brighten there day.  I place a total of seven stones throughout the park and one was placed on NaNa's tree, this is a tree that has been dedicated in Memory to my mother.  As I was sitting in the car waiting for my husband and son to return, I noticed a couple looking at one of the stones, but they left it for another person to find.  I'm hoping that a Lucky person that finds one will post where it was found and tell a little about how they felt.
I will soon be posting some pictures of the TP Roll ornaments that I have completed.

Have a Great Day!!

The day before the storm (rain)

Today took our son to Sea Breeze while the weather is still good, soon the park will close for the season.  While there I placed 2 hand painted stones for a Happy Lucky person or two to find.  One I put out was very visible and so many people walked past it was still there when I walked by, you can tell everyone is having a Great time and not paying attention.

Have a Great Day!

"Found Art Hand Painted Stones"

"Found Art Hand Painted Stones"
I'm leaving whimsical hand painted stones in public places somewhere in the community.  It's my way to make art and share it with others. Also, a fun way for me to brighten up the day and put smiles on the faces of people with the economy the way it is. On the back of each stone is my blog address and a number so I know which one was found.  I would like it very much if anyone that find one of the whimsical painted stones please post and let me know that they found one and how they felt when they first saw it. If interested they can leave it somewhere for another person to find. There is no obligation these are free.

This is the post I put on Craigslist so people in the community know what I'm doing.

Have a Great Day!!

Rainy Day...

Didn't work on anything yet today, took our son out to the mall had planned on the beach but that was washed out with heavy rain.  While at the mall I put out one of the painted stones for someone to find. Tomorrow I will be out again putting out some stones, going to post in Craigs list for the people in this area to know that I am doing this.

Have a Great Day and Stay Dry!!

Shopping at Tops supermarket...

I just got back from the grocery store Tops on Mt Read. I decided to put a couple of the painted stones there for someone lucky person to find and hoping to give a smile, one outside and another in the store in the resturant area.  Was gonna put a third one out but figured to many.  Went I left the lady with the two boys that was ahead of me at check-out I saw them standing right next to the bug I put outside, don't know if they saw it was still there.  I hope that anyone that finds one has a Happy Day, if have a chance sent a reply.

Have a Great Day!!

At the Laundry mat...

Have a Great Day!!

Went to Sea Breeze...

Today we took our son the Sea Breeze, have been going there just about every weekend this summer.  While my son and husband were enjoying the water park I sat and watched the people until I spotted them at the Lazy River.  That's when I got up to go over to the fence to watch, as I went there I set a painted stone on the stone wall next to the picnic tables. I try to do this with out anyone seeing what I'm doing.  For awhile it sat there, than I spotted some children on that wall and the stone wasn't there after they left, hopefully it found a new home.  Shortly later the rain came and boy did it come down hart. 

Have a Great Day!!

Saturday morning...

After the meeting I took a ride thru the countryside, something I haven't done in awhile.  In Hilton there was a store I used to go to "Ben Franklin" craft store.  To my surprise when I got to the location, it's not there anymore a gym is in that building now.  Well, I went to MacD's to get a large diet coke (gotta have my diet coke, LOL!!!) asked the cashier what happened to Ben Franklin's, she told me that it closed awhile back,  can tell I haven't been to that area in awhile.  While getting a straw I put out one of my painted stones in Hilton, NY at the MacD's for someone to find, I also put one in North Chili, NY in the Community Center Building.  I also sold one ornament at the meeting, A small New York Sphere ornament.

Have a Great Day!!

Found Art, Hand Painted Stones...

  I had gotten the idea of painting some stones and setting them in areas for people to find and bring some happiness in there every day life.  Saw an article/blog/facebook from Renton Rocks and "Chicken Nugget Lemon Tooty" where the children paint and set there stones for people to find. It made me smile and want to do the samething here, thank you Renton Rocks and Chicken Nugget Lemon Tooty.

  On the 18th I had an appt. I had planned on taking some of the stones I painted to be set out for someone to find after my appt. than had and idea to leave one in the waiting room.  As I checked in I decided to give one at that moment, she loved it than the rest total of 5 stones I handed out, all the ladies loved them :-) .

  On July 21, I went to the mall, took some more painted stones to set out for people to find and hopefully some joy.  I finally broke the ice or in yesterdays heat melted the ice and had set out 2 stones out of the 6 I had taken with me.  Will be out again with these little treasures.

Have a Great Day and Stay Cool!!

"Found Art Hand Painted Stones"

Got my 4th batch of hand painted stones completed.  Now, I will be setting them in public places for others to find. Anyone that finds one can keep it, or leave them someplace else for someone else to find.  And they can go to this blog and leave comments about what they found and how it made them feel.  Leaving art in various public places for others to find.  It's my way of making something and to share it. Also, a fun way to brighten up the day with smiles.  I will now be on the look out for some more nice shaped stones to paint for my "Found Art Hand Painted Stones" project...

Have a Great Day and Stay Cool...
