I found inspiration for this at Yesterday on Tuesday.
Thank God for rock gardens! This craft would be sooo much harder if I had to go outside and dig thru the snow and frozen grounds for rocks. I went outside to my now melted rock garden, picked a few fine specimins, spray painted them a nice shiny gold and wallah gold pieces! For a pot, I found a plastic black planter in my garage, cleaned it off, and stuck a few glittery clover stickers on it and presto! (I found the stickers at Jo Ann's check out for a dollar for about 40.) Since the pot was so big, I filled almost full with crumpled up newspaper and put my bits o' gold in! I LOVE it!

I also painted a bigger stone gold and wrote "lucky" on it:
I found a little "friendship teapot" on some shelf and decided that it could join the fun! Here's my start of a St. Patrick's Day "matel." It's really just the top of a never used wood burning stove...
