potted pleasures
You don't need to be overly artistic to create wonderful pots for your garden. Get yourself a couple of Rust-Oleum Paint Pens - available in wonderful colours - and get creative!
With their chiselled fibre tips you can easily use Rust-Oleum Paint Pens for thin or broad strokes, and the tip stays full of paint for a free-flowing design.
Whilst we were recently at Gardenex, we decided to occupy ourselves with this quick and easy craft project - painting pots for the garden.
Nancy decided to create a mosaic pot using two shades of blue. To start off, she sprayed the pot with Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch in white, but this isn't absolutely necessary - you can use Rust-Oleum Paint Pens to paint directly onto the clay pot. Using a pencil, Nancy outline her design on the pots before filling in with two shades of blue.
For my pot design, I went for something a little more floral in shades of green and pink. The pot was sprayed in meadow and leafy green and I applied a home-made stencil design for the flowers, which were painted in pink.
You can use Rust-Oleum Paint Pens on wood, metal, glass and ceramics and the formula is durable enough for embelleshing outdoor items such as birdhouses and planters - it won't wash off!
So if you're feeling a bit creative, or need to add some colour to your patio, grab a couple of paint pens and have fun!
