Painting Pots

3-4 Clay Pots
1 small Drainage Pot Dish
Foam Brushes
Small round Paint Brush
Paint Primer
Country White Acrylic Paint (If using outdoors use an exterior paint)
Golden Brown Paint or paint of your choice
Black Sharpie

My pots were new so I just cleaned them off with a damp rag. If you want more information on cleaning pots etc. see the websites /blogs listed below.

Use sharpie to draw on windows and door. Then paint the inside of windows/door with Black Acrylic Paint and let dry.

Decorate with whatever you would like. I used a thick Hemp around each Pot and hot glued it to rim.

Use any lantern you like for the top or just use the smallest pot.

Layer Pots smaller to largest you can glue them together but I wanted the option of taking them apart to store.
