This is a simple-to-make flowerpot that is great as a gift.
Supplies Needed:
- Unglazed clay (terracotta) flowerpot
- Acrylic paint
- Paintbrushes
- Optional – A pack of seeds or potting soil and a young plant
- Optional – Cellophane and ribbon to wrap the plant pot and plant
Instructions
1.
Using acrylic paints, decorate a clay paint pot. Butterflies, plants, or polka dots are nice, simple decorations. If you will be adding a plant to the flowerpot, a painting of that plant is a nice touch.
Let it dry completely.
2.
Optional: fill the plant pot with potting soil and plant the seed of a fast-growing flower (like marigolds) or put in a small plant (herbs like chives are a nice choice).
Wrap with cellophane, and tie with a pretty ribbon.
