More sand castle mold goodness. I try and shop with an eye towards the hobby. Sometimes hobby items turn up in unlikely places. In this case Dollar Tree, but in the summer toy department. I thought I might find a boat, but got a castle instead.

Thanks for reading.

You know what the king said about the castle that he got instead of a boat? "It turns out to be a hole on a hill that you throw money into."

Ba-da-bum.

A suggestion, prime and get Krylon stone paint. Example

Sol quite so.

Yes, I have used some of that from a different company, but I will check the Krylon 14Bore.

Thanks from reading.

You could always build a sand box gaming table and use your molds to build a castle…. unless you have cats at which point don't.

Because what you end up building is one giant cat box.

And finding the cat Bleeped text during battle is no fun.

DO NOT ASK ME HOW I KNOW.
