For this project, Oh Yay Studio created their own floral stencil for their colorful garden stepping stones! To make a stencil, create the design on paper, then trace the design onto an acetate sheet and carefully cut with a craft knife. Alternately, you can use a premade stencil for this project— just make sure it fits the size of your pavers.

Select which COLORSHOT Premium Spray Paint shades you want to use for your garden stepping stones. Oh Yay Studio is using a cool blue palette consisting of Island Girl, Mermaid, Scuba, and Stamped Passport as base colors, plus Head in the Clouds for the stenciled design. Ensure your concrete patio pavers are clean and dry before you start painting.

Place the concrete patio pavers onto a drop cloth in a well-ventilated area to protect from overspray. If you’re spray painting in your yard, you can skip the drop cloth as long as you don’t mind getting paint on the grass! Shake the can well and apply spray paint to your garden stepping stones in smooth, even strokes. Allow the paint to dry to the touch before applying additional coats as desired.
