Colourful homemade garden balls are great eye-catchers in the garden or in the plant pot. The two funny frogs in this handicraft instruction can be quickly recreated.
And it is as simple as that:
How do I make funny frog faces as weatherproof garden balls with VBSOutdoor Color? The basis for each garden plug is a large plastic ball with a socket. Later a round wooden stick is put into this socket and fixed. Furthermore Polystyrene balls for the eyes, green and red VBS Outdoor paint and ribbon needed. Furthermore, toothpicks and scissors for cutting the ribbon should be available. To attach the made eyes to the big plastic ball you need a drill.
At the beginning the wooden sticks are primed in green and after drying they are glued into the balls with hot glue. The next step is to put the Polystyrene balls for the eyes on wooden skewers. The large plastic balls for the head and the small Polystyrene balls for the eyes are now halfway through the process with VBS Outdoor Color dyed in green.
The eyes are created by outlining the green half of the painted Polystyrene balls with a black outline and painting pupils on the remaining white half Next, the mouth is roughly drawn on the plastic balls and then painted with red outdoor paint from VBS Hobby Service completely painted. Now let everything dry well. After drying, it is necessary to drill small holes in the plastic ball to fix the eyes. The made eyes are inserted into these holes and then fixed For the perfect look of the Frog Garden Balls, we recommend tying a loop directly under the plastic ball
The coloring of the balls is especially good with painting sponges!
