DIY Golden Geodes

June 3, 2015 by Katie Smith Leave a Comment

Learn how to make beautiful (inside out) golden geodes for your home or projects with easy to find supplies using this tutorial by the always crafty Mark Montano.  These can be made easily in about 6 hours or overnight. I think these would make good book ends!

Mark says: “Ok, they’re more like inside out geodes, but they still look amazing.  Lately I’ve been obsessed with growing crystals in the kitchen and I seriously cannot stop!  Last week I decided to paint some basic stones with my beautiful metallic gold Americana Multi-Surface and then see if they could withstand the heat and borax solution.  Guess what….They did!  I absolutely love the way these look and people can’t stop playing with them.”

Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources.
