Flower Love
Do you love flowers? Do you like to have beautiful things in your home? Maybe you are looking for a unique way to decorate an outdoor space. All of these are fantastic reasons to try pot decoration. And I’ll show you how to do it with some good ideas.
Pot decoration is to add different materials (fabric, color, clay, vinyl) to the outside of pots, urns, planters and other terracotta or ceramic containers to create something beautiful from them. It is really simple, even with the tapered shape that most pots provide.
Decorate plant pots
We have a guide for painting clay pots, but these projects go beyond simply painting. There are a variety of types of deliveries and methods used, so you will get lots of good ideas.
Before you start
Before you start any pot decoration, you must prepare your pots. Clean pots found in craft shops, garden shops and DIY home improvement stores are worried and porous. This means that they are not waterproof. You will seal the pots.
Uglased or unseen terracotta will draw moisture from the plant and the soil that keeps the pot moist. Extra moist can affect the outer decoration so that the color can be blown if not properly sealed.
Sealing of the pots
The first step in preparing new clay flower pots is to wipe away dust or dirt. The second step is to gently seal both the inside and the outside. This will not only help your decorated design on the outside of the pot to withstand blistering, it will also help the interior keep moisture in the soil. There are two different sealing techniques:
1. Spray sealing the entire pot inside and out with a few layers of clay pot denser. Allow each application to dry before applying the next layer.
2. The second method I recommend is to apply folk species outdoor seals across the surface. For extra protection, apply a second coat to the interior walls of your pot to create a waterproof barrier to protect your external decoration.
