Tips For Painting Flower Pots:
– Painting Clay Pots –
Apply a base coat of paint with a foam brush, working in broad strokes around the pot. Thin the paint with water to make it easier to spread, and extend it about an inch down into the top of the pot. Leave the bottom clear for drainage. Allow the pot to dry between coats, and apply additional coats until you reach your desired color.
– Painting Glazed Pots –
Lightly sand the surface with 150 grit sandpaper or a sanding sponge to help the paint adhere. Apply a thin first coat and let it dry for a day before applying more coats.
– Painting Plastic Pots –
Use acrylic or spray paint, and prepare the surface with PVC glue. You can also degrease the pot with rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover using a cotton swab.
– Painting Terracotta Pots –
Prime the pot and saucer, then apply a thin coat of acrylic craft paint. For a paint-dipped design, use rubber bands to section off areas and paint each section a different color. You can also try sponging on heavier color first, then filling in with a lighter touch. The paint will look darker and more blended once it dries.
Let’s look at some ideas of these Minions made from terra cotta pots.
