They are very nice and a great and unusual gift idea.
|
What sort of paint do you use is it weatherproof?

Hi Matt, they are really great! I've made 'pet pebbles' with the kids for all of our pets. The kids love doing them and for the pets who have passed, we have a lovely reminder of them.
http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/...f/IMG_2540.jpg The kids also made ladybird one for their godparents. http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/...f/DSC00884.jpg Strawberries for the strawberry patch. http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/...f/DSC00883.jpg and all sorts from the angry birds to pebbles with their names on, Halloween ones and a variety of creatures such as owls. http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/...f/DSC00882.jpg Fun activities with the kids and they made these back in 2012. Since then we've added a few new pets to the menagerie and they always get their own pebble. :-) I purposely haven't put any tort ones up because I didn't want to detract from yours as they are amazing. CB, I use gloss on mine as the pebbles then go outside. I expect Matt has done the same. :) |
Hi guys thanks i use varnish on them works really good, emma put your tortoise ones up if you want i dont mind lol ive sold a good number of these stones now been really busy painting them im trying to raise as much money as i can i dont make a penny from it not sure how much longer i will keep going as its so time consuming but i enjoy it lol xx

wow Emma yours are fabulous too. I love the owl. I buy an owl Christmas ornament every year, and support Suffolk Owl Sanctuary because Owls are simply wonderful. I paint pots but they flake outdoors and fade - clearly needed varnish (is that wood varnish?) .
I think I am using wrong paints too. What paints do you use ? Matt yours are so detailed too they are really good, can they go outdoors and what paints? CB |
yes they can go outside they are uv resistant as well x
