Re: Frugal Mom's Day Ideas?
I have some round and square pavers my girls are going to decorate for grandma's garden.
The round ones we will paint red, with black dots and faces--lady bugs!!!
The square ones we will paint different colors, to be bugs--you do them on the diagonal, so one corner is the head, one the rear end, and the other two corners are the tips of the wings. They make good green bugs or butterfly types.
Make sure you polyurethane the top with about 3 coats so it will hold up for several years.
The pavers sell for $1.99 each, but the completed bugs sell at the floral shop for $25 each. We just use left over paint for previous projects.
