Make Something Sunday: Painted Terra Cotta Planter

Make Something Sunday: Painted Terra Cotta Planter

Thank you for stopping by Make Something Sunday, where we post a new craft every Sunday from our favorite DIY bloggers! We want to inspire you to create at home with simple and fun crafts. Let's get started! 

Today we are featuring a craft from Bri of Design Love Fest. We have previously featured Bri's crafts, and they are always colorful, bold, and fun! Today we will be making Bri's Painted Terra Cotta Planter. Most of us have some terra cotta planters lying around - let's give them a makeover! Along with your terra cotta planter, you will need white acrylic paint (or any color that inspires you) and a paint brush or two. If you want, you could use painter's tape prior to painting to tape off more exact geometric designs. But you can definitely freehand your designs.

Dots, dashes, and stripes are great designs for the novice DIY'er. If you are adventurous or more experienced, you may want to try loops, arcs, x's and o's. You can't go wrong! These adorable painted planters make the perfect housewarming or hostess gift. Everyone loves a homemade gift!

We would love to see your take on this craft! Tag us on social media with the handles below and #makesomethingsunday and we’ll send you a code for $5 off at the shop (one per person)! Happy crafting and don’t forget to come back next Sunday for our next craft or sign up for our Make Something Sundays email list and we’ll send you an email every time we post a new craft!
