Hey there!
You won’t believe it but it’s SUNNY in the Pacific NW today (ok partly sunny but I will take it!) I am making the most of it 🙂
I am super excited to share a quick and fun DIY I did this weekend with a few small terra cotta pots and some acrylic craft paint.
These are super easy, and you can use any design for inspiration too!
I used three clay pots, a brush, various colors of acrylic paint and began by painting the pots each with two coats of paint so they had a good base.
Once that was dry I started with my designs. I allowed each section to dry before adding more. So with the orange/peachy pot I painted the circles first. I let them dry then added the swoosh of yellow. Next I painted the green leaves and decided they needed more zhush so I added the black dots to the leaves.
The same process on the striped pot after each color was dry I went back and added another. The floral pot I started with the green fronds first, added the starfish-esqe flowers next then went back and added details!
I put one coat of mod-podge on the outside to protect the paint and voila!
A trio of pretty pots for my windowsill 🙂
Are you team neutral or team color when it comes to gardening and containers?
I find myself doing some of each it seems. Thank you so much for reading friend, until next time!
xo, Tanya
