INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1. Cut out Washi tape in the shape of a tie or bow tie and stick them on your rocks. Or use a strip of wide washi tape or cardstock to cut out a fun patterned shirt.
Step 2. Use a black permanent marker and colored paint markers to add details such as collars and faces, or add cute quotes to each rock.
