    i find that sanding the foam before you etch into it helps the paint stick to it- it adheres better

    Very awesome videos & Tombstones!! In my opinion, I would not have tried the Lichen or Moss (at least smaller amounts of moss). They still turned out AWESOME !!

    Another great video!! I love how it was a family affair - had a tombstone painting party w/the family! This is exactly what I was looking for. I made a couple tombstone but the coloring & aging effect was missing. I can't wait to try your painting methods out. Thanks again!

    Awesome videoS !!! Those came out absolutely amazing! QUESTION….. in the last video you showed how to put your PVC piping in between and etc. BUT you don’t show in either video How do you put STEAK them actually into the ground ? Thank you so much for all of the time that you put into both of these videos and all the helpful information 👍

    To stake them, I just hammer a rebar or wooden dowel into the ground. Then you can just slide the tombstone over it. The rebar goes in the PVC pipe.

    Awesome ideas. I make my own every year but am always last minute. How do you keep the paint from washing off in the rain? Do you seal the final product with clear coat of some kind? I also have used fleckstone spray or spray stone to create the texture. It’s expensive though as I go through about a can per tombstone.

    Thanks! The paint is waterproof so rain is not a problem and no need to seal - though we don’t get much rain usually in October. The drylock itself is actually a weatherproofer. The paint has never weathered in Tombstones I’ve had for more than 10 years.

    No I didn’t do anything extra. I live in California and we don’t get much weather this time of year. But the dry lock paint actually seals them so they don’t need additional sealing usually.

    If I make this decoration for an indoor environment (party), can I use regular paint mixed with sand?

  • @ImNotBoredImCreative

    @ImNotBoredImCreative

    Жыл бұрын

    I’m not sure what you consider regular paint, but you could use house paint or acrylic paint. They would bind well with sand. But tempera, gauche, and watercolor paints will not. Spray paint will dissolve the foam.
