In China, in the middle period of the Tang dynasty, people developed an enthusiasm for rocks. The trend gradually spread to Japan and Korea and has continued into the modern age. In fact, in these countries, rocks mounted on wooden stands have become prestigious objects of contemplation.

While you may not share the enthusiasm, you can give life to the small rocks sitting all over your garden by turning them into decorative ladybugs!
Very few insects are beloved. Many people hate spiders. Even more, loathe roaches. Ladybugs, however, are an exception. They are practically welcome in people’s homes and gardens! And these ladybugs can also serve as cute paperweights!
