Painting your walker, paints to use and design ideas


There are a lot of design opportunities when painting your walker. Each section could be painted a different way or you could do the whole thing the same. I'm starting with a few daisies on the top of one side.


The only rule is to use a craft paint that is intended for outdoor use on metal. There are a lot of colors available and most are under two or three dollars a bottle. I had some on hand because I also use the outdoor paints for my birdhouses and garden decorations. They're also what I'm using on dala horses these days.

A tool belt for the walker


We just used a standard tool belt from the hardware store and wrapped it around the back rest of the walker. Here's the view from the front.


Here's the view from the back.


Here's the view from the top. We ran out of cable ties but will strap all 3 layers together in the morning when we get more of them.


Resting after a job well done.
