Refurbished Wooden Plant Pot

Refurbished Wooden Plant Pot



This is a hard piece to photograph. The flash washes it out a bit, but you get the point. 

I added fine glitter and then glued on jewels to give it some dimension and shimmer.

I added beads to the rim of the pot.


I didn't think to take a before picture (silly me!), but it was a drab brown plant box with a hideous flower printed on it before I repainted it. I bought it at goodwill for $0.50.

Leaf print pumpkins

Spray paint pumpkin decorating is addictive...



For the leaf patterns, I pasted green leaves onto the pumpkins using glue sticks, then sprayed the regular or glitter spray paint over them. I waited about 3 minutes then removed the leaves. I wiped off any residue left from the glue sticks after the paint was completely dry (~7-10 min).




The glitter paint is just neat to use on all sorts of pumpkins. Certainly more detail could have been used, but I was decorating these for a Fall party happening in the next hour! It's a fun, super easy, quick way to add a twist to pumpkin decor.





 Happy Fall decorating!
