Painted Rock Frankenstein Craft

painted rock frankenstein

This Frankenstein Painted Rock Craft is absolutely adorable and fun to make with the kids this Halloween. It’s easy to create this character with just a few craft supplies!

We love a good, festive craft project to celebrate the season. This Frankenstein craft is simply too cute and would make a great little paperweight or magnet.

Too busy to make this right away? Pin it for later! Pin this painted rock craft to your favorite board on Pinterest and it will be there when you’re ready.

The key to a good Frankenstein is all in the shape of the rock. He really needs a strong rectangular and/or triangle shape to help define his facial features!

First you need to start with some rocks, clearly!  I really like these flat river rocks for painting from Amazon.  It can sometimes be hard to find the perfect flat rock for craft projects and so these rocks make it easy!  But if you want to go out rock hunting just be sure to wash the rocks that you find thoroughly before using them for your project.
