Don’t you just love making something intricate and beautiful out of something dated? There’s just something about reusing lost or forgotten materials to create something new that we adore. One of our favorite ways to decorate for the season, without buying new decor every year, is to uplevel pieces that we already have. You’d be amazed at how many uses you can get from one ceramic pot.
In this tutorial, we’re going to turn a simple ceramic planter into a beautiful fall-inspired pot. Let’s give that lonely plant on your shelf a new home! We painted our planter with a rich terracotta chalk-type paint and a white glaze to give it a vintage patina (you’ll want to save this technique for future projects, trust us 😉). Merge these colors with beautiful designs from the Trimmings 2 Mould and the quintessential fall elements from our Autumn Cottage Mould, and you have yourself a lovely fall planter.

Beautiful 😊
I want the new molds soooo badly! I wish I could find a stockist that takes sexzle…. Any stockists that accept sezzle feel free to comment your website! Please and thank you! 🙏
Love this so much!
This is lovely!
Love it, but you need to spread your glue all around your clay back.

Is this weather-resistant? If not, is there a clay that will stand up on items for patio or porch?
This is gorgeous! I had a lot of fun working with this mold plus last year’s pumpkin on three projects this autumn, I will try and do this one too. QUESTION: did you seal the pot after the glaze?🎉❤
What brand is your terracotta paint? I’ve been looking for one. Thank you,
