This year I have tried to bring joy and happiness to my community by hiding Happy Rocks at libraries, playgrounds and sculpture parks. I also give them as gifts.
Most Happy Rock artists paint natural rocks, but as I am a polymer clay artist, I make mine from polymer. I stamp the back of each rock with the legend Happy Rock.
I made this one for my church’s very first Christmas tree. I have given many happy rocks to folks, young and old, at church, so I know this will make people smile.
Here’s the back:
Art Bead Scene is featuring ornaments made from Art Beads this month.

Your Happy Rock polymer clay ornament is very beautiful, Susan! And your effort to bring joy and happiness to your community is a great thing!
Thanks so much, LPC. I hid two rocks tonight when I had dinner with my daughter.
Such pretty soft colors! This reminds me of the beach, with a rolling wave. It also reminds me of butterscotch candies which my grandmother always had. Thanks for playing along! Enjoy the day! Erin
Thanks so much, Erin!
Erin, thank you. It reminds me of my dawn walks on the brown sugar sands of the Space Coast. Butterscotch candles. Mmmm.
A beautiful reminder of the happiness you spread this year. Merry Christmas my friend!
Thank you, Lisa. May this season be filled with joy!
I hadn’t considered poly clay happy rocks. What a wonderful idea to turn them into ornaments. Very creative!
When I saw a local group of Happy Rock-ers, I immediately thought of polymer and started making polymer Happy Rocks. My fellow Happy Rock-ers are crazy about my polymer rocks. Thanks for your kind words.
What a great way to spread happiness around.
Thank you, Linda!
I love that your ornament will spread joy and is a reminder of how your creativity is used to brighten your community. The colors are sweet and remind me of candy too. Thanks for playing along with us today.
Thank you, Heather!
What a fantastic idea!Congratulations on your mission! And the ornament is beautiful!
Thank you, Rozantia!
What a wonderful thing you do, Susan. I Love how your mind works; having the idea to hide your own handcrafted Happy Rocks! It brings me joy, and puts a spark in my own mind as to how I might possibly bring a little surprise of joy. Thank you for sharing this, Susan.
Thank you for your kind words, Norbel! It is an honor to serve my community this way.
So very nice that you are putting this on your church tree! It does remind me of the beach- hope you have an awesome holiday!
Thanks, Susan! It reminds me of dawn beach walks on the brown sugar sands of the Space Coast. And seeing the mama turtles in the surfline, ready to lay their eggs after dark. And watching the egg laying. Have awesome holidays!
I looks like caramel candy 🙂
It does, doesn’t it. Thanks, JOS!
This is what our world needs more of! I love this idea!! Every now and then there is a special individual out there who will find the rock and it WILL bring them hope. God bless you!
I hope they bring joy and happiness to those who find them. I had dinner with my daughter tonight and I let her hide two Happy Rocks. It made her happy and it will make the finders happy, too.
Super fun, Susan! I love that you turned your happy rock idea into an ornament!
Thanks so much, Sarajo!
Your desire to bring joy to your community is evident in your post and in your art. It’s very creative to turn your rocks into ornaments and I know your church will appreciate having something you made decorating their tree. Your post touched my heart. Thank you for your example of love and generosity.
Oh thank you for your kind words ORDINARYMIRACLETODAY. I believe in miracles.
