Our house came with 40+ 70’s style hexagon red-ish stepping stones. Brad wanted to throw them out as soon as the house keys were in our hands. But he married a crazy DIY addict who hoards any potential project materials. After some discussion (ahem), we kept them, and I’ve just used some to make a happy path to our compost bin.
Now what should I do with the remaining 34?

Grab your favorite spray paint colors and spray the tops of the stones. No need to worry with the sides because they are covered.

The stepping stones just needed one coat of spray paint. If you want extra staying power, you can seal the paint with a clear coat. I didn’t seal mine because I wanted a quick project.

Dig a shallow hole around your stepping stone, place the stepping stone and pack the dirt around the stone. Be sure the stone is sticking 1/2 to 1” out of the ground, because if it’s level with the ground or lower, you’ll hose it off to take pretty pictures and it will get mud all over the top and you’ll get all flustered and give up on the pretty pictures.
True story.

I love my happy painted stepping stone path.
I love that I can boast about my awesome creation to my husband who wanted to throw the stepping stones out, made from junk. 

Happy DIYing!

I’ll be finishing our RV Adventure next week. I was off the computer because of technical malfunctions. Boo. I can’t wait to share all we’ve been up to.
