So. After a couple days the paint was fully dry. It was rainy for a few days so it took longer to dry. Air was moist.  I had a bag of  playground sand that I used to level some bricks. It worked out perfect for adding texture to the top of my hills. I have an old cheep paint brush that was perfect for spreading glue. I added a slight amount of water to help spread it a little better. After that it’s time to sprinkle on the sand. I went heavy with the sand to make sure I got good coverage. Now to let it dry. Next phase will be more paint. See ya in the next phase.

So I have an idea for a desert table. I want it to be multi functional. Sci-fi, historical, and fantasy. I had some old hills I used under one of those plush mats. The were never painted so I figured I would repurpose them. I also have some older desert rock formations I had made .  Gonna give it all a face lift

I picked up a $6.00 piece of tan felt at the Fabric store. Then I took it to Home Depot to have them match the color of some paint with the felt. Got home and pulled out the old pink foam. It needed some cleaning up. So I broke out the hot wire cutter to redo the edges. Then I put on some paint. When it dries I will start the second phase of the project. See ya soon.
