Who hasn't picked up some beach pebbles, stacked them or arranged them in patterns, right?
This family for example had the idea to make themselves out of stones.
You can check out what people create with pebbles and rocks on beaches around the world at The World Beach Project, a picture gallery devised by artist Sue Lawty in association with the Victoria and Albert Museum in the UK.
Shared with Mosaic Monday.
And over at Completely Coastal some inspirational images of Decorating with Beach Pebbles and Rocks await you.
What a wonderful post to start my week. Adorable ideas with stones!

Very interesting! They couldn't do that here today. The ocean was ferocious..no swimming due to Hurricane Bill..
ReplyDeleteI love this post--especially the image of the family made of pebbles. I just came back from Maui and this post reminds me of how certain areas by the beach had stacked stones.
ReplyDeleteI've made sand angels before but I never thought of making pebble people. I love the name, though.
ReplyDeleteI love stacking stones in the garden in unexpected places. Love your photo's. Sharon
ReplyDeleteVery interesting! Thanks for the links.

ReplyDeleteThis mosaic made me smile. I like pebbles and rocks, and your pebble feet are so cute. What a great idea. It's creative and original as far as the mosaics go. I think it's fabulous.

ReplyDeleteBrenda
That is a fantastic mosaic and idea! We have done names and patterns with shells, but I just love the beach stone idea. I'm going to steal it for our next day at the beach!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous.
I love your creations out of stones, especially the feet.
ReplyDeleteFun! We are spending a week in Chatham at a beach cottage next week... I think we'll try this. -Jackie

ReplyDeleteWhat a cool idea, love the rocks!
ReplyDelete...love the stones...especially when they are heated up and placed on my spine for a soothing gentle warmth! xo, mickey
ReplyDeleteThe simplest sweetest thing, and I have never thought of that when we were at the beach with the granddaughters. Thanks for this Maya, it's something that I will remember to do. The photos would make lovely framed mementos.
ReplyDeletegorgeous! i love the pebble shapes. i have to admit i have never done that with pebbles on the beach (we dont get such lovely ones here) but do it with shells (see my mosaic monday). loving my visit here. will be back :)
ReplyDeleteThat's such a great idea! Beautiful pictures, too, thanks.
ReplyDeleteWow...I love that family's ambition and creativity! Not to mention how it must have kept the kiddie occupied for quite a while. :-)
