My Happy Place Rock Painting Mandala Dot Art | Santorini Stone

I love this dot art.. I painted "my happy place" on a rock, a Santorini stone and decorated it with mandalas and more dot art. I had so much fun just being silly and doodle dotting! I hope you give this one a try because everyone has a happy place and this would be a fun gift to get wouldn't it?

[@nancycharlton1803]

This stone, for me, was the most stunning piece you have ever done. I actually teared up! I don't have the patience to add all the detail that you do, but I will do my own "Nancy" version. My happy place is traveling in our motorhome around the country painting rocks and leaving rocks. You are a joy to watch. Thank you.♥

[@JaDeLRocks]

Awwww Nancy 🤗🤗🤗🤗 Thank you ♥️ Someday I hope to travel around too… I’m working towards that. I’d love to see the Nancy version 💕💕💕

Just beautiful as usual, JaDeL! I love that design!❤ I must say that my happy place is also at my painting table. When I'm not at my work table, my other favorite place is walking outside, near the beach and looking for more rocks to paint, or distributing the painted rocks for other walkers to find. Have a beautiful Sunday, JaDeL!❤☕

[@JaDeLRocks]

Thank you Dawn.. I have to say your happy places sound delightful ♥️♥️

We first crossed paths on eBay. Purchased a couple of your beautiful painted stones. Now I found you on KZbin! My happy place is by the ocean, and right here watching KZbin! 🌈😊

[@JaDeLRocks]

Ohhhh really???? Tell me the stones you bought. I think I might know who you are ♥️♥️♥️. Either way… I’m so glad you found my channel! The beach would have to be an ultimate happy place for sure. I do wish I had one closer.. like in my front yard. I love it.

[@denisehowie3716]

Love this piece and I especially like how you layered the design!! My happy place is in our succulent gardens. They are now filled with dotted rocks and the trees are getting filled with dotted CD sun catchers. Love combining happy places!!❤❤❤

[@JaDeLRocks]

Thank you, I can easily see why your garden would be your happy place. I’ve seen those pictures and I love your garden. I think I could be really happy there too. He recently, I’ve been trying my hand at a little gardening myself. It is nothing like yours but we all have to start somewhere right? I think I might be creating my own little happy place outside. I hope you have a great week.

This is amazing!!! And not to mention beautiful. My happy place is my plot in my community garden. Since ive been widowed and on my own, I love to spend time there and get my hands dirty and just relax. I am going to definitely try this one. I dont have santorini stones but I will find a stone and paint it white. Again you have inspired me ❤❤❤

[@JaDeLRocks]

Awesome sauce Fran ♥️♥️♥️ I just started a tiny garden myself. I’m using those grow bags and have a couple of tomatoes in the ground. I’m excited. I’m so new but I’m following Epic Gardening on KZbin and Jacque… I’m learning a lot quickly and hope to have a little luck. My dad always had a garden so I figure it’s possible out here 😂😂 Good luck.. 🤞🏻

I'VE WATCHED THIS TWICE, ALONG WITH THE UNBOXING FROM EMMA. HOW SWEET OF HER. I TEXTED KETIE AND SHE GUIDED ME WHERE TO GET THE SANTORINI.... IS THERE A WISH LIST ON HERE SOMEWHERE? LOL I CAN'T DECIDE ON A SIZE OR HOW MANY. SO BEAUTIFUL!❤❤❤

[@JaDeLRocks]

Hmmmmm I’m not sure. I’ve never ordered them before. Maybe just get a couple to see how it goes and if you like it. I bet you will ♥️

[@darlenemikkola5239]

BEAUTIFUL ❤❤. I love how this stone allows you to show off darker colors for base dots! You created so many different designs with a variety of colors that it floors me you completed it in 3 hours….it definitely would have taken me a lot longer 😅. Your design instantly inspired me to do another dragonfly rock. It’s been quite a while since I did one. Now I just have to find where the time to do it will come from. Lol. Fantastic video my friend❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@JaDeLRocks]

Thank you ♥️ You totally got it… when I began I thought to myself this will be an opportunity to play with those dark colors that blend into my typical black background. Then after I let the first round of these dots dry. I discovered that they look black even without a black background. L O L! So then I started grabbing for a little bit lighter colors. Lol but it really was fun to use that eggplant and navy blue and things like that I rarely get to use them, I’m so glad you noticed. I hope you have a great week.

This absolutely gorgeous. I have an issue. I am trying to do a school stone for my grand daughter. She is going into the 3rd grade in August. I have already gotten one of the schools colors perfect. The other color is white. I think it is a #3 stone. I am wanting to put her name on it in white with the year "2023 " on it as well. Can you give me some tips on how to center and write on this stone. My handwriting is horrible. Her name is Jordyn. I would love you help on this. I have tried and tried on regulate paper and it is horrible. You are definitely my go to on things like this. I have shared your work so many times.

[@JaDeLRocks]

Have you tried a stencil? I know that sounds crazy. But… did you see the black happy place I showed? I found a stencil at Walmart…. I used my pencil to trace it on the board in a fine line. Then I used those tiny lines as a guide. So now you see this stone I used no stencil. Sometimes you just need to practice first. Maybe take the 3” stone and trace it out on paper and practice. If you have a 3” brainstorm you can use the guidelines to get it on the stone right too. If you are going to write in white I totally recommend a Pearl or metallic. Most whites don’t cover on first stroke and/or can be a bit junky. When trying to center a word I count the letters and begin with the middle letter. So to center 2023 I’d put 23 to the right of center and then 20 on the left. Same with Jordyn.. start with dyn. You can do an image search for fonts and there’s lots of videos. I love the font on this rock.. I know I changed a little from the stencil but I think this will be my new writing style for awhile. Oh… if you are trying to write super tiny I do that with my awl. I did a video showing that once I think… let me run see…

[@mycreativeheart4159]

Your note about mixing flow aide with water before mixing with acrylic paint??... is this only for that particular "Flow Aid".... or any type of flow/fluid helper! I'm thinking of the Slow-Dri. Wondering if adding water would negate the ability of the slow-dri.

[@JaDeLRocks]

On the slow dry it says you can thin but it doesn’t insist. On the flow aid it insists but I see lots of folk using it straight too. I’m just following the directions.
