Supplies needed: - Unglazed clay (terracotta) flowerpot
- Acrylic paint
- Paintbrushes
- Optional: A pack of seeds or potting soil and a young plant
- Optional: Cellophane and ribbon to wrap the plant pot and plant
| | | Using acrylic paints, decorate a clay paint pot. Butterflies, plants, or polka dots are nice, simple decorations. If you will be adding a plant to the flowerpot, a painting of that plant is a nice touch. Let it dry completely. | | Optional: fill the plant pot with potting soil and plant the seed of a fast-growing flower (like marigolds) or put in a small plant (herbs like chives are a nice choice). Wrap with cellophane, and tie with a pretty ribbon. | |
