SPRAY PAINT PROJECT: Dinosaur Planters

Simple project, Simple supplies, Simple steps:

-plastic animal of your choice (I found some at Michaels and Wal-Mart)

I selected ones that were soft rubber/plastic so I could use a box cutter to cut the opening.  Many have said you can use a drill to get through tougher animals.

-SPRAY PAINT (I used all primary colors from my collection.)

-since the spray paint was a bit tacky when dried, I coated the dinos with ModPodge

-succulent plants (found some at Lowes) The dirt included with the plant was enough to fill the hole in the animal.  Otherwise, there is always the ground you walk on to dig.

 

STEPS:

1) cut a hole out of the animal

2) spray paint entire animal, dry, reapply if needed

3) coat with ModPodge & dry

4) put succulent inside animal

5) water plants

6) display & enjoy

The longest part was the waiting to dry.  Rainy weather outside didn't help.
