Craft Ideas: Pretty Face Planters | Art & Craft (Basics) - Class 10 PDF Download

Material Required

• Spray Primer
• Terra cotta pots of any size and matching saucer
• Flat white spray paint
• Clear spray varnish (matte finish)
• Permanent markers (I love Sharpies)
• Acrylic paint (optional; I used it for the cheeks)

Directions to be followed

• Paint the pots white (or any color you want!). It may take several coats. I found that spray primer helped coverage. Acrylic paint works great too! Once dry, draw your face with a pencil on the best-looking part of the pot. I sketched a few ideas on scrap paper first.
  
• Think about the eyelash thickness, small smiles, or pretty full lips, and blush!
• If you mess up, just erase it and start over! Once you have a face you like, use your markers or paint pens fill in the lines.
  
• Add a little blush using acrylic paint or a pretty pink permanent marker.
• Add some embellishments to add a little more color. I painted stripes along the top section of the pot in mint and peach. You could add polka dots or paint it a solid color or embellish the saucer.
  
• Easy DIY, big impact. The hardest part is painting the pot white! The rest is lots of fun! These make great gifts, and cute little patio peeps.
