Stones pictured in listing are used as example for what each set includes. As each stone is individually hand painted, there may be slight differences in the appearance of your stones. Because of this, if you need a specific color for any of the story stones, feel free to request this in the “Notes” section of your order and I will do my best to accommodate your modification. Story stones are recommended for ages 3+ as some of the smaller stones could be a choking hazard if not handled correctly. Supervision of children while using story stones is always recommended. ______________________________ Thanks for visiting Alleluia Rocks! Want a FREE Rock Painting Tutorial? Just join my email list! Copy & paste this URL into your browser ==>> https://www.subscribepage.com/freetutorial PLEASE NOTE: I do not paint the backs of my rocks unless otherwise specified. This is because many of my customers hide their rocks in parks as part of the "Kindness Rocks" movement. Public parks frown on placing painted items on the ground. In addition, I like to keep the natural surface visible. So your design will feature a "frame" of the natural rock on the front and the back will remain the natural stone.
