shellac hack

Not having a lot of art supplies on a recent vacation ... necessity became the mother of invention 

Hairspray (I can vouch for this one in particular) is a great sealer for painted rocks

Then we made boxes to keep them in like this one:

This particular card is good self care only if you have someone to wash the dishes too :)

I would be happy to email the PDF file so you can make your own deck of cards too. 

Although, it's up to you to gussy them up :)
