How to Make Your Fall Plant Pot
Step 1: Prep Your Pot
I started with a simple found pot. A quick cleaning made it ready for paint.
Step 2: Paint the Base
Using Fusion Mineral Paint in Cashmere, I covered the pot with a warm, creamy base coat. Once dry, I added clear wax to help protect the surface and the transfer.
Step 3: Add the Transfer
The star of this project is the Chalk Couture Autumn Accents silk screen transfer. After fuzzing the transfer with the fuzzing cloth, I pressed it onto the pot. Then I spread on Camel paste with the a squeegee, then carefully pulling the transfer away to reveal the beautiful leaf pattern.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
Once dry, I added more clear wax, then used dark antique wax to give it depth and a gently aged finish.A quick wipe with a lint-free paper towel removed any extra wax, I repeated a couple time until I achieved the look I wanted. I added my favorite greenery to finish the look.
Styling Ideas
- Use it a part of a fall centerpiece on your dining table.
- Display it on a stack of old books or on a shelf in your bathroom for a seasonal accent.
- Style it with faux greenery in a vinegete or add a small real plant for extra charm.
Final Look
This little project came together in about 15 mins and adds the perfect autumn touch to my home. I love the leaf details and how it adds charm to my fall decor.
