– terra cotta pots
– paint & brushes
– leather
– glue
– x-acto knife
– q-tips
Directions:
for small planter – paint your pot desired color and let dry. Cut a piece of leather the length and width of the rim of the pot. Add glue along the rim, and press leather firmly onto glue. Let dry.
for large planter – paint your pot desired color. Use a piece of leather that’s the diameter of your pot, but a bit longer the pot rim (you’ll trim it after it’s glued on). Add glue to inside edge of the rim, and start folding over the leather, pressing firmly onto the glue and continuing along the entire inside. The leather will need to be puckered a bit so that it lays flat along the outside. Once the inside is glued and has dried, press the leather along the outside rim of the pot and using the knife, cut the leather to the length of the bottom ridge of the rim. Using a q-tip, place glue on the under side of the rim, and press leather firmly onto glue. Let dry.
