Come on you can do it!! You still have lots of time... can you get your BMs to help? BTW - I sent you FM on one of your other posts.

I wish I could get some help!!! None of my bm's live near me...they're all in NJ and PA...and one is currently in Canada!!!! I'd ask FH to help...but he's playing football!!!!!!!!!
UGH!!!
The ones that are done though look soooo nice!

Could you not fully cover each? Cutting down on the time & amount of spray you need. Just a thought.

Ok...I think I figured something out...yesterday at Michael's I also bought glitter glue in red, gold and silver...this is working out!!! I am putting the glue onto the pinecones and then just spreading it all over them...it's getting a little messy but it's working and looks just as nice as the spray painted ones!!!
Yay...but now I've got to go work on my project...be back later!!!

You still have a whole month to knock out these placecards...I think your guests will really talk about them, how different and pretty they were. I'm sure it will be worth it in the end!

You can do it! the time will be worth the end result. if I lived close I would love to have helped (I love crafts.)
why don't you do a light coat and see how it looks, you can always go back if you don't think it's enough. lay them all out and sray, when dry, flip and spray. (how many do you need to do?
