Clay flower pots; paper napkins with images of flowers; acrylic lacquer(white and gray); matte transparent varnish for crafts; duct tape, paintbrush, sharp-tipped scissors, pencil, plastic bowl.

Work description.
1. First prime the surface of the pots with gray varnish and wait for it to dry. With a pencil, draw rectangles on the surface of the pots, in the center of which the flowers will then be glued.

2. Cover the outlines of the rectangles with adhesive tape so that their borders are clear and the varnish does not spread. Paint over the rectangles with white varnish. Let the varnish dry thoroughly.

3. Cut flowers out of paper napkins. In a plastic bowl, dilute the craft varnish with water according to the instructions supplied and cover with it the white quadranglenicknames on pots. Separate carefully upper layer flower napkins and stick them on each pot. While doing this, gently smooth the paper from the center to the edges, then press down to avoid bubbles or wrinkles. Finally, coat everything together with the color with varnish again so that the image does not come off or suffer from water damage. Wait for the varnish to dry well

• Any napkin you like
• Decoupage glue
• Medium Synthetic Brush
• Scissors
• Decorating item (in this case, a flower pot)

Divide the napkin into layers, for decoupage you only need the topmost, paint layer. Cut out the drawing, place it on the pot, cover thoroughly with glue so that the drawing is completely saturated. It is necessary to carefully smooth out the drawing - this is necessary so that air bubbles do not form under it. When the drawing is dry, apply varnish.

Flower pots in nautical style
The marine theme in the interior is very popular. available means and why not support sea ​​style rooms with flower pots in the same watery spirit? Moreover, unclaimed shells and pebbles brought from the sea are gathering dust on the shelves.

Decide in advance on the table with a pattern that you will lay out on the surface of the pot. Take a simple ceramic pot without glaze and use glue to attach shells or stones to it. Pieces can also be used here ceramic tiles, left over after repairs, or interesting fragments of broken dishes. Remember the harmony of color and shape when choosing different materials for the pot.

Leave the pot alone for a while for better fixing of the parts to the surface of the pot. The details can be painted on request. Then start filling in the spaces between the pieces. This can be done in at least two ways:

Method 1. In a 3 to 1 ratio, thoroughly mix the cement with PVA glue, carefully diluting with a little water to make a creamy mixture. Using this mixture, use a brush to fill in the empty spaces between the parts on the pot. Wait until the applied mixture begins to dry and, using a cloth or sponge, remove excess solution from the decorative parts.

Method 2. Gently apply glue with a thin brush between the parts glued to the surface of the pot. Keeping the pot tilted, sprinkle sea or river sand over the glue-smeared areas of the pot. Thus, you will fill the empty space on the surface between pieces of stones, shells, tiles and broken pieces of utensils.

Armed with a colorless nail polish or a special spray varnish, apply a thin layer to the surface of the finished flower pot. This will give durability to the paints, if you use them, and just add a little shine to the natural parts.

As you can see familiar objects, and the remnants of various things may well get a second life and still serve well for the benefit of beauty.

The shells can be glued around the rim or broken into small pieces, then spread the pot with glue (in small areas) and sprinkle with shell fragments (it looks very impressive.
The main rule is not to spare the glue! The shells should simply be recessed in it.
When the glue dries, it will become transparent, then cover your product with varnish.

Everything that was found in the kitchen in jars in the closet - rice, millet, buckwheat, pumpkin seeds and coffee grains - was glued to the "Moment Crystal". Rice is pre-painted with ordinary gouache. Then everything is varnished. ... For simplicity, it is done like this: it is smeared with glue, then it is sprinkled with cereals abundantly (over the dish so that different sides did not crumble), it presses a little and that's it. And it is varnished after everything has dried with the usual colorless for interior work.

Pot decorated with colored beads
Choose the beads or beads that you like, come up with a pattern, you can pour it in a mess. Only after that you spread glue on small areas of the pot and glue the beads, after drying, apply a layer of varnish.

Plain plastic pots. And regular gift paper (used). Cut and stick on 2-sided tape. The adhesive tape is glued only along 2 lines - from top to bottom. And also along the closing edges.

An ordinary plastic pot is wrapped with thread (in this case, a twine rope)
If you are decorating your pot with threads, you will need thick threads of different colors. You need to gradually spread glue on the pot and wind the threads around it. This way you can make a striped pot. You can also decorate with small artificial flowers.

Remains of ropes, yarn and ribbons for business
For lovers of needlework (macrame, knitting, weaving), after finishing work, trims of ribbons, threads and ropes of a wide variety of colors and textures remain. It is already unrealistic to make any specific thing out of them, but it is a pity to throw it away. So they accumulate in the house like Plyushkin's.

Take a simple plastic or metal pot, use a brush to apply glue (PVA, Moment, any other suitable for gluing different objects) to the bottom of the pot. Start wrapping the pot from the bottom, pulling on the material of your choice - rope, tape or thick yarn, trying to do this, pressing one row tightly against the other. Apply glue to next part pot and repeat in the same way.

Thus, you can decorate the pot by combining cords and ribbons of different color, texture and thickness. Thick ropes and threads can be used as a basis for winding, and with thin yarn or ribbons you can decorate the wrapped pots on top, laying out different patterns from them and gluing them to the base. On such a pot, buttons, bones from fruit plants, nutshell

There was a simple plastic pot, for 4 hryvnyas for a rosette, and with the help of knitting threads and a ribbon it became like this ...

The pot is glued with colored aquarium primer or colored stones.
For this we spread small area pot with glue and
sprinkle with primer, lightly pressing. After drying, you can paint in any desired color, or leave it like that. And varnish

Even such an ordinary element as a clay pot can become a bright and interesting detail of the entire garden design.

It’s so easy arrange a flower pot with your own hands.

You can not only decorate flower pots with your own hands, but also completely transform them, giving them the necessary brightness and originality. Agree that standard pots of white or brown are too boring, and after the transformation they can become not only a frame for plants, but also a colorful interior detail.

For a person with a fantasy and creative approach decoration of flower pots with my own hands will not be a problem, there are many ways. You can use any materials at hand - fabric and colorful beads, twine and ribbons, pebbles and seashells, use decoupage technique or paint the pots by hand. In this article, we will show you how to decorate a takanyu flower pot.

For work we need standard flower pots, pattern paper, pencils and scissors, a wide brush, PVA glue, fabric and sharp knife... The fabric should be chosen with an interesting pattern or texture, but it is desirable that it be combined with the rest of the interior details.

Share ideas with your friends

From plastic bottles you can also make interesting pots for flowers and other plants. For some reason, they are most often made in the form of pigs, probably because it is easiest. Here's the beauty:

• Place the piece cut from the fabric in a flat container and pour the thickener on top, then distribute it with a brush over the surface of the fabric. We take out the fabric and let it drain. The material is not wrung out so that it does not wrinkle.
• The fabric is wrapped around the pot, smoothing carefully and paying attention to the protrusion of the fabric near the edge of the pot.
• We trim the fabric allowances, make cuts in a circle and fold them over the edge of the pot. If necessary, you can use PVA glue. We make the same cuts at the base of the pot, bend the fabric under the edge and level it, leaving the hole in the bottom uncovered.
• If you wish, you can decorate the pot with a decorative bow. For it, cut off a piece of fabric one-third of the height of the pot and 2 times the length of the width. We cover it with hardener and bend the opposite pieces of fabric so that they connect in the middle. Then dry it for 45 minutes. Then we lay the workpiece on the table with the wrong side up and connect the short sides in the center. We press them and let them dry. Insert pieces of thick paper inside the bow to maintain its shape and let the bow dry completely. In the meantime, we cut out the central part from the same fabric and cover with a hardener. We tie its center of the bow, and then, applying PVA glue to the wrong side, we apply our bow to the pot and fix it.

Today I want to bring to your attention an idea of ​​how to turn an ordinary old paint can into a very pretty flower pot.

We need:

Supplies:

Paint can
-Nail, hammer
- Waterproof fabric
-Glue
-Centimeter

1. Wash and dry your paint can.

2. Mark a point in the center of the bottom of the can and punch through it with a nail.

3. Measure the size of the can and cut the right amount of fabric

4. Gently glue the fabric onto the jar

5. Wait until the jar is dry and place your favorite plant... Voila!

A few examples of how a napkin applique or do-it-yourself decoupage transforms the simplest objects, namely a flower pot.

In many ways, the result of the work depends on the napkin with which pattern you have chosen.

A flower pot decorated using decoupage technique looks beautiful even with indoor flower and as a stand for pens, pencils, markers.

By the way, do-it-yourself decoupage is a way out for those who dream of equally decorated flower pots. You can decorate flower pots in the same style using decoupage technique.

Traffic jams!

Any objects and materials can be used for decoration. For example, try decorating a flowerpot with bottle corks.

Take a regular plastic planter and sand its surface with sandpaper.

Then apply to it for ceramic tiles. Place the glue in a thick layer of about 1.5 cm.

Press the plugs into the glue mass so that they fit as tightly as possible to each other.

The plugs can be glued with the convex side up or with the concave side. For convenience, do the decor in stages. Apply glue and cork to a small part of the surface, then to the next, and so on.

So that the spaces between the plugs are not empty, fill them with any small metal objects: nuts, screws, bolts, blocks, the main thing is that they do not stick out with a point outward. Press down firmly with the palm of your hand, but not firmly, being careful not to squeeze out the glue. Leave the pot for a few hours (read the instructions on the glue package) until it dries completely.

Although it is not customary to give flower pots to men, such a little thing will perfectly fit into a young man.

Wait until the glue dries. For small parts you can use a toothpick.

When the glue is completely dry, paint the necessary parts with gold spray.

Then, with a toothpick, push the parts of the shell apart from each other so that there is a space between the cracks. This fills all the space between the pictures.
