If you live anywhere that you have access to the Chicago Tribune and get the Sunday paper, watch for me by the Puzzle Island section. My column comes out once a month on Sundays and features a fun and easy craft project for kids and adults. This past week’s column was painted strawberry pots and last month was a fabric flower. Next month will be a cute beach themed craft your kids will love!


I love the painting flower pots idea, but I called two places asking for OUTDOOR acrylic paint, both claimed all acrylic paint is outdoor paint–that there was no difference. I called Home Depot and Starving Artist. I’m wondering where to find outdoor acrylic paint, so I don’t have to seal it too!
Hi Patricia. The paint that I used (that I wasn’t able to name by brand in the column) was Patio Paint. It’s available at most craft supply stores such as Michael’s, Hobby Lobby and JoAnn’s. It’s made by DecoArt. 🙂
