I painted the large elephant ear leaf I made last fall, I don't want to make them this big again cause they are too heavy.

Nice job and looks the perfect size for a birdbath

I use Acrylic paints, at Lowes I used house & trim acrylic paint and made it a green leaf color. At Hobby Lobby or Michael's I use the little 2oz bottles of Patio Paint by DecoArt or Folk Art Enamels. Then I wait a week and spray a sealer on them with a satin finish. I've had mine outside for 3 yrs only a couple faded.
