We we're out at a local park the other week when one of my kids found this on the equipment:
Thought it was a cool find and gave me an idea to make some with some with our favorite mind virus!
They're just gum nuts that you commonly find throughout Australia. I used acrylic paints which wasn't ideal as they stick together when they heat up. To try and prevent that and to give a glossier finish I used some kind of gloss spray paint that I found in the shed.
This week I've been hiding them in different parks. Hopefully some curious kids will find them and take them home.
After thoughts:
These were quite "high time preference" only taking a few hours or so. I'd like to find a nicer paint that doesn't finish sticky, a finer brush to get more detail, and some more original ideas that the usual "B" logo.
