Win over that special gardener in your life with this fun craft! It is also perfect for Mother’s Day!
What You Will Need
- Small Clay Planter
- Craft Paint, assorted colors
- Paintbrushes
- Faux Succulents or real succulents/flowers
- Dirt or Potting Soil (optional)
Once you have gathered all of your supplies, lay out 3-4 paint colors. I decided to use the colors light blue, green, purple and pink! Now let your little one paint their Picasso heart out!
Set aside the painted pot and allow to dry for 24 hours. The dry time will depend on the type of paint and HOW much paint was used. I used acrylic and a lot of it! I allowed the pot to dry the full 24 hours.
The final step is to add a flower or Succulent to the pot! Succulents are relatively easy to find and this beautiful succulent is from a local Ace Hardware. Typically any hardware store with a garden center will carry succulents. If not, then opt for a faux succulent. The carefree maintenance of a faux plant is also a fantastic perk!
