Tug on these rocks...updated

After I posted my DIY rock pull I realized I should have painted the button part gold.  It would have made it 100 times cooler IMO. 


So yesterday I went back and painted it gold- it looks much happier.



Its like an ah-ha moment!  LOVE the way it looks now.


I'm armed with gold paint and I know how to use it. Watch out house, I'm on the loose.

    Jesse- I used Golden brand paint- its an acrylic artists paint I picked up at a local paint store. But I'm sure other craft stores carry it as well, check their site to see where they sell it near you. I like the Iridescent Gold or Bronze colors best.

    Someone needs to restrain me from the gold paint. If I could I'd paint my face gold!

    Looks even better!
