We needed two new planters for our living room and I didn't have the money for a lot of the pots I saw that I liked. So we found the terracotta pots in the size we wanted
and they were like $10 each. So we grabbed those, some spray paint and some
glaze. Then I thought they needed a little extra something, so I took a
stamp I had already and some acrylic paint that I had laying around and
ta-da!
Here are the pots. We did two of the smaller size in Antique White and a large one in Colonial Red. All the paint we chose was Rust-Oluem. We ended up using two cans of the Antique White but just one Red. And two cans of the glaze. But the large pot took a lot, so if you're doing just smaller pots, I imagine one can of glaze would be enough.
We glazed the inside first.
Then we did 3 coats of paint on each pot and base and three coats of glaze on each pot. I did stamp the design and then go over it better with a small paintbrush that I stole from my kiddo's. I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out and we might have spent $60 total for all three pots, bases, paint and glaze.
We got all our supplies at Home Depot
