Next time you go to the beach, collect a few stones and stack them up to make a pretty piece of memento art with a modern feel. Simone over at Beach Vintage created this art with rocks from her favorite beach. I love this idea for using some of those rocks you just have to pick up when you comb the beach. I like to have a simple craft project to do whenever I'm on vacation at the beach, and this would fit the bill nicely! [how to make modern rock art]

Project Estimate:

• 16 flat stones, various sizes and colors, on hand
• Heavy-duty glue like E-6000, on hand
