6. The “Golden” Doorstop

For a touch of luxury, turn a brick into a “Gold Bar.” This is a fun, cheeky craft that looks surprisingly sophisticated in an office or library.

  • Materials: Metallic gold spray paint, black permanent marker.
  • Steps:
    • Sand the brick to make it as smooth as possible.
    • Apply two thick coats of high-shine gold spray paint.
    • (Optional) Stamp “999.9 FINE GOLD” onto the top.
