Getting Started

A Clean Canvas is Important. Using a sponge, wipe down your pots so you have a clean surface to paint on. Make sure your pots are completely dry before you start to paint.

Decorating Your Pots

Rubber bands or Stickers. Stretch a rubber band around your pot. The size and placement of the rubber band on your pot depends on what look/design aesthetic you are trying to achieve. For a more playful look, try angling your rubber band to create an asymmetrical design. Get the kids involved! Kids can decorate their own pot by applying their favorite stickers to the pot.

Painting. Once you are happy with the placement of your rubber bands or stickers you can begin painting your pots. Start painting your DIY pots flower ideas, using the rubber band as your guide. The rubber band will help create a clean line between the painted area and the natural finish of the pot.

The Finished Product

Make sure your paint is completely dry, then cut, peel-off, and remove your stickers or rubber bands to reveal your new favorite accent piece.
