Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Prepare and sketch the crown
Wash and dry a flat, wide rock. Use a pencil to draw the crown outline - a band at the bottom with 3 to 5 upward points of varying heights. The tallest point is in the center. This is your royal canvas!
-
Paint the crown gold
Paint the entire crown shape with yellow or gold acrylic paint. Apply two coats for a rich, regal color. Let each coat dry completely. The gold base is what makes the crown look truly royal.
-
Add jewels and gems
Using your dotting tool or the back of a brush, add bright gem dots on each crown point and along the band - red rubies, blue sapphires, purple amethysts. Make them round and bold.
-
Add shimmer details
Add tiny white dot highlights to each gem to make them sparkle. Paint thin white lines along the edges of the crown band for a shimmering gold effect. Add heart or star shapes for extra princess charm.
-
Seal your royal crown
Let all the paint dry completely. Spray with clear sealant to protect your jewels and gold. Your princess crown rock is a reminder that you are worthy of a crown every day!
-
Add RoxGeo Code
On the bottom or back of your rock, write ROXGEO.COM followed by a slash and your rock’s unique code (e.g. ROXGEO.COM/ABC123). This lets the finder go directly to your rock’s profile page and log their discovery. If the rock is too small for the full address, write #ROX followed by the code without spaces (e.g. #ROXABC123) — it’s short, easy to search on Google, and leads straight to your rock’s journey page. Use a fine-tip permanent marker or acrylic paint pen, and seal it with clear varnish so the code stays readable through rain, sun, and adventure.
