Paint Your Pot
Start with a base coat of acrylic paint to set the tone. Go bold and bright, soft pastels, or classic neutrals—it’s totally up to you! Let dry completely. -
Add Scrapbook Paper Details
Cut shapes, strips, or panels from scrapbook paper and use Mod Podge to glue them onto the pot. Florals, stripes, polka dots—mix and match for a layered look! -
Decorate with Embellishments
Now for the fun part! Glue on Dress It Up Embellishments and buttons to create themes. -
Add Beads and Final Touches
Finish with a sprinkle of craft beads or rhinestones for a little sparkle. Wrap ribbon or twine around the rim for extra texture. -
Seal and Display
Once everything is dry, seal your design with a layer of Mod Podge to protect your masterpiece (especially if you’ll be using it outdoors). Then just add your favorite plant!
Let Your Style Bloom
No two pots need to look the same! With so many embellishment styles and color combinations, you can create a whole collection of pots that feel personal, playful, and perfect for the season.
