Daisy & Hattie Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Probably Lesleys Any oil based paint should work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 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 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGeorge Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I think you'll find they were car sickers they are available on Ebay as an example see http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZmywifesanogre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 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? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellekatz Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I think Lesley painted hers... See here http://club.omlet.co.uk/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 They were definitely painted....I remember the discussions. I'd forgotten how beautiful they look. I'm tempted to "pimp" mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 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........
