Re: Yard Labels


I wonder if using permanent marker and then slapping a coat of clear
concrete sealer over the name would work?  what do you think, Anelle?
 Would be more 'natural' looking and take less time than painting the
entire rock, I should think...your painted rocks gave me this
brainstorm, but I wonder if it would work.
