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!

These are too cute! I’d love to have you come share on Crafty Creators Link Party, which is open until Monday night. I think our readers would love to see this as inspiration! I found you over on Wonderful Wednesday on Ducks ‘n a Row. Glad I did!
Hope to see you there!
