What You Will Need
- Terra cotta pots
- Popsicle sticks
- Americana Chalky Finish paint in the colors of your choice I used delicate, escape, and treasure.
- Americana Decor Varnish
Instructions
- Add a dollop of each color in random areas around the pot. Work in sections that are about 1/4 to 1/2 a pot at a time depending on the size of your planter. Work quickly! You do not want the paint to dry before the next step.
- Smear the paint around the pot with a popsicle stick. Fill in areas that are unpainted as you go around. Add more paint if needed.
- Allow the paint to dry completely. If there are areas that are left unpainted, you may have to repeat the steps. Or leave them as is if you love that rustic look!
- Next, apply a coat or two of varnish to seal your pot and protect your paint treatment.
- Once the varnish is dry, add in plants and proudly display your pots around your home.
