Lucky Pot of Gold Painted Pot
DIY Painted Pot Project Instructions
-
Paint your terra cotta pot with a few coats of the black paint, and let dry.
-
Apply a good layer of decoupage along the rim of the pot and coat with glitter.
Tip:Â it is easiest to work in sections when applying the glitter so the glue doesn't have time to dry and cause the glitter to flake off -
Apply your stencil to the middle of the pot and once again apply a layer of Decou-Page and coat with glitter, then carefully peel your stencil off and allow to dry.
-
Once everything is dry fill your pot with "gold" and have a party!Â

This is so cute! I know it is geared toward St. Patrick's Day, but I think you could easily switch up the design and use this as a cute party centerpiece! Love :)

This painted lucky pot of gold made from a flower pot is so cute and very easy to decorate. What a great centerpiece for St. Patrick's Day. or a desk display. I love the gold glitter but I think I will use green glitter or paint for the shamrock. I would love to find a little leprechaun to put in the pot with a green ivy to give it a special touch. I love this idea. Great video and tutorial.

#NationalCraftMonth2017 I hate glitter . . . it shows up in the strangest places months after using it! Cute idea, but I would use stamps or paints.

Painted pots are cute any time of the year, but the glitter sure says 'party!'. #NationalCraftMonth2017

Perfect project for today. I think if I made it I would use green glitter for the clover. #NationalCraftMonth2017
