Materials



Method


Note: I had 10 shields to do and thought spray painting them would be faster. I used one whole can to do one coat on one side of the shield. I picked up the craft paint the next day. One medium sized bottle did two coats on one side, was one quarter the cost, was less smelly and the kids could help.
