plastic spoons
Multi Surface paint: light blue
light green, light yellow, peach/melon, gray, brown
Tools: sandpaper
paintbrush, toothpick, micron fine point black art pen
Instructions
Sand each spoon to knock off the shine.
Paint each spoon with a thin coat of paint, leaving the bottom 2-inches of the handle unpainted. This is where the spoon will go into the ground.
When dry, paint a second coat and allow to dry completely.
Use micron art pen to write herb names on the spoons.
Use a toothpick to dot on designs using the gray and brown paints.
Let these dry for a full 48 hours before exposing to the outdoor elements.
