My friends over at When Geeks Craft and I are on a mission to create the coolest stuff we can, Occasionally, we are able to break the mold and make something truly exception that neither of us could do individually. We embarked on a project to make Pixel Art Lanterns for a Lantern Parade held in Cary, North Carolina every January.

Secret Sidewalk MessagesSecret Sidewalk Messages
This is a quick and easy summer time project to bring hidden messages and pictures to life! It utilizes a hydrophobic spray and a cardboard stencil with your design. Where ever the spray coats the sidewalk, it repels water, so taking advantage of this property, I was able to make some really cool hidden sidewalk art around my home and neighborhood. Just note that this spray was a lot more long lasting than had originally had hoped, which isn’t an issue for me, but could be for you. Just something to keep in mind!
