Bernice H on Jun 06, 2012Yep, here is the wacky pineapple fountain. As I said , it is not cement, just a common , not very expensive fountain my son bought me years ago. I had hubs drill holes in the dish part so I could plant something in it. But I want to give it some color first.Then maybe portulacas?Helpful Reply

Becky H on Jun 08, 2012Bernice H., I've used acrylic paints on resin sculptures for the yard, and the color/paint has held up beautifully. You can purchase it from hobby/craft stores. Additionally, they sell sealers with these paints (water base) in satin and gloss; take your pick, if you wish a little extra insurance on your project.Helpful Reply
