Thank you, I spent an entire afternoon trying to do this. The nail polish wood NOT spread into the water. I watched many videos and NO ONE ( except YOU ) explained which polishes to use. Thank you so much for solving the mystery!
THANKS for sharing. Will be trying this soon!!!Appreciate when people share things they know so others can enjoy the beautiful art that is made. I am part of local Belton Rocks and Harker Heights Rocks FB page . cant wait to make some for our towns rock pages!!
Love your rocks! I have been painting rocks with left over nail polish for years! One word of caution. If you pour used water through a coffee filter when disposing of it this will keep the polish out of your drain and potential clogs later!
Thank you! I tried following a different video and was completely discouraged. Your explanation, especially regarding which polish works and which doesn’t, is just what I needed to get me to try again. Wish me luck!
Lobe this ..1st time seeing it done with nail polish . I have seen it done with coffee cups too but not rocks.. love it..excited to try. New subscriber.
I love water marbling! If you use a slow drying polish in the water, you can extend your work time. Also, if you put a tape handle (like an upside down T-pin) on the bottom of the rock, you'll get more of the design and none on your fingers. Your rocks turned out beautiful!
Thanks for this comment, I was wondering about both these things. What polish would extend the drying time yet float? I was wondering about adding a solvent to the water to do this.
This is really awesome. I love it. People find these little colored treasures and it surely must brighten up their day. I know I'd be excited to find one and leave one. Thank you for sharing and caring.
Absolutely fantastic video and what an adorable idea!! The rocks turned out beautiful, I cant wait to try this! Thank you for sharing and God bless. 😊💖
I paint and hide painted rocks in the area that I live and I Love it. I actually found my very first painted rock 2 days ago and that was very exciting I kept it but I hid extra rocks in place of it.
I'm not sure about the limestone, if it's a smooth rock then it would probably work fine. I paint them white first with just acrylic paint, or you could use white spray paint, it just helps the nail polish colors to show up better.
If you don't want to get your hands messy, you could glue sticks to the back of the rocks and then dunk the entire rock into the water. After the rock dries, just break the glue joint and scrape the residue off of the rock.
Looking for a little guidance . . . Just love this and really want to make a few with my grandkids but not having much luck. I’m using the recommended polish and the first drop or two disperse just like in the video but then subsequent drops stay very tight and start to pile up. What am I doing wrong?
Our towns are playing the game also. my little girl found two rocks yesterday! we have planned on painting rocks and hiding them also. its alot of fun! :) some people make beautiful rocks too!
I too live in NE Ohio. My friends and I find rocks all the time. I painted a few but I put so much time into them it's usually hard to part with them :D
This was a fun way to create beauty! Thank you for sharing... I can’t wait to go get polish and try. We hike every day and I wanted to take several to hide along the trails, perfect! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for your tutorial, the rocks are gorgeous. I’m using Sally Hansen Extreme but only the first few drops of varnish are dispersing and the subsequent drops are a blob. I have tried different water temperatures but didn’t really make much difference. Any tips would be greatly appreciated
Awesome popsicle tip! Thanks!
Wow! That is so fabulous, and it looks pretty simple to try out this technique. Thank you for sharing this video

Ask the Lord, where to lead you to place the prayer rocks. Is always a blessing to give
Super pretty
Woooow.....very easy technic....coool
Great idea often half used unwanted nail vanish at car boot sales for pennies I going give it a go
Yes! Old nail polish is great for crafty stuff :)
This is a good idea! I've always wondered how that marble polish works. I'll try it with my friends for our town's group Tallahassee Rocks.
Can you use limestone rocks for this? And do you also have to paint the rock first?
I'm not sure about the limestone, if it's a smooth rock then it would probably work fine. I paint them white first with just acrylic paint, or you could use white spray paint, it just helps the nail polish colors to show up better.
Sassy Shelly thank you so much and I love your art!
Useful question 2
If you don't want to get your hands messy, you could glue sticks to the back of the rocks and then dunk the entire rock into the water. After the rock dries, just break the glue joint and scrape the residue off of the rock.
Looking for a little guidance . . . Just love this and really want to make a few with my grandkids but not having much luck. I’m using the recommended polish and the first drop or two disperse just like in the video but then subsequent drops stay very tight and start to pile up. What am I doing wrong?
That s amazing!
That's amazing!

Oh my god that’s cool I love rock painting that’s a good idea

I have tried different water temperatures but didn’t really make much difference. Any tips would be greatly appreciated
I'm having the same problem. Maybe they've changed their formula? This video is from 2017 so that's my guess.
i love this idea. i think the swirl your daughter made was so cool. thanks for sharing.:))
Bonjour 👋 super beau dit moi vous mettez vos galets dans quel produit et si c’est du vernis a ongle. Car je voudrais bien en faire, merci d. Avance 💕👍

Здравствуйте. А в пузырьках лак или краски? Если краски, то какие? И в чём Вы их рвзводите? В воде, масле, или эпоксидной смоле?
Have you ever tried to put the polish in the pipet or dropper bottle ? it would be faster to drip and the polish would not dry out with the lid open
So beautiful
Beautiful
this is pretty cool :) tfs
love this beautiful.
