How many hybrids in an Eglu Cube?

[Daisy & Hattie]

Hi there,

I was having a look through the gallery and noticed that someone has painted pretty flowers on their Eglu. I wouldn't mind doing this to mine as it is green and rather drab. Does anyone have any idea what kind of paint can used?

Probably Lesleys

 

Any oil based paint should work

[Mrs Frugal]

Yes, that's Lesley's Eglu by the sounds of things and I've asked her if she could let you know what she used when she's next online .

I've an idea she used acrylics.

I think you'll find they were car sickers they are available on Ebay as an example see

Oh dear I should not have looked at those car stickers - I am sorely tempted, but OH would go ballistic! (Maybe just a few pink flowers round the back window? )

I think Lesley painted hers... See here

They were definitely painted....I remember the discussions.

 

I'd forgotten how beautiful they look.

 

I'm tempted to "pimp" mine.

Hello...........

 

Yes, I painted mine - def. not car stickers

 

I used acrylic paints from Homebase, small pots in lots of different colours....... The painting has only just started looking a bit 'tired' - after three years

 

Jane (Motherhen) painted hers first, with big flowers........
