When you want to make those dull, red clay pots into something for display, all you need is some tissue paper, glue and water mixture and clear varnish.
Needed:
- Clay pot
- Tissue paper
- Glue and water mixture - it can be pretty thin
- Plastic cup
- Paint brush
- Clear varnish
Instructions:
Step 1: Lay newspaper out on a flat surface.
Step 2: Put clay pot upside down in the center of the newspaper.
Step 3: Make a glue/water mixture in the plastic cup. (About 2 parts glue, 1 part water.)
Step 4: Use the paint brush to spread the glue mixture all over the clay pot.
Step 5: Stick tissue paper to the pot in any design you wish. Completely cover the clay surface.
Step 6: Cover the tissue paper with additional glue.
Step 7: Allow the pot to dry totally.
Step 8: Once dry, cover the entire pot with a clear varnish.
Step 9: Allow the pot to dry totally again.
Step 10: Fill with potting soil, your favorite plant or some seeds, and enjoy.
This project is quite easy, and can be done by the youngest child.
