Floral Oasis-Paint, Spray or re-cover?

guideanna · 2012-08-03 11:33:10

Hi All, I have a couple of square slabs of floral oasis i'm using on a project, i need to get them pink (they are the usual green colour at the moment). Woud spray paint or acrylic paint work? OR shoud i just re-cover in tissue paper? Would prefer to have it painted for a smoother finish though.

Acrylic would work, though you might pick up the surface with acrylic as you are brushing it, spray might, depending on whether the paint dissolves the oasis on contact. The main problem though is what you are going to do with it then. If you are going to stick flower stalks into it you will have to be extremely accurate as each time you touch the oasis you will break the surface and the green will show through.
