I was stuck in the house because of the rain and needed a simple project to entertain myself with. I went into the garage and dug through my flower pot collection and decided to do something fun to these plain white pots I had.
I thought about spray painting them a fun color but instead decided to add a little character with puffy paint. What I love most about using puffy paint is that once the paint dries on a hard surface it can easily be scraped off, should I get bored with my new designs.For the first pot, I added stickers and dotted around each one. I filled in the empty spaces with more dots. Simple and easy!
I love the way it sparkles!
For the second pot I added stickers to create a scalloped edge. Once the paint dried I removed the stickers and filled in the bottom half of the pot with more dots.
As you can see from the pictures, I simply added larger dots of paint around the rim of the flower pot.
The dried pots are waterproof.
There are so many great uses for puffy paint. I have used it on glass and fabric with great results.

So creative! I love how they turned out.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your cute little pots with pizazz!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the pots I always wondered how they did the flowers like that I use to try to pick them off when I was little lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea Brandi! I love how you used the stickers as a template. Genius! And the fact that you can scrape the paint off later means that the pots will never go out of style. Perfect! Have a great day.

this is a great idea! i have tons of random flower pots that could use some sprucing up :)
ReplyDeleteLove this idea!
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever Brandi! Great idea :)
ReplyDeleteThese are actually really cute. When I think of puffy paint I tend to think of T-shirts I painted as a child. These are much more sophisticate.
ReplyDeleteHow freakin adorable are those!! Such a creative idea.
ReplyDeleteHi Brandi,

ReplyDeleteWow, Brandi - another very creative idea! You are amazing! Love these! xx
ReplyDeleteI never would have thought to use puffy paint on flower pots. They turned out great and so cheerful, too.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I like the scalloped pot the best! I love puffy paint. I used it to label my dry ingredient jars (flour, sugar, etc.). Your post has inspired me to get the paint back out and decorate some of our pots. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative and frugal way to brighten up flower pots. Love it!

ReplyDeleteSo cute Brandi I've never used Puffy paint before, I'll have to try it because it turns out so neat!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun splash of texture! XO, Aimee
ReplyDeleteAt first I didn't get it. I couldn't figure out why the stickers didn't show through the paint. Then I realized you used them as a template and later peeled them off...had a duh moment there lol! The pots turned out great.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing it at What We Accomplished Wednesdays. Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Deborah
So simple and elegant!
