Creative Ways to Decorate Plant Pots
If you have started collecting plants, you know that the right plant pot can make a big difference in how your plant looks. A well-decorated plant pot can add personality, color, and texture to your home. Decorating plant pots doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. Here are five creative ways to decorate plant pots.
Paint them with geometric shapes
One of the easiest ways to decorate a plant pot is to paint it with geometric shapes. Use painters tape to create triangles, circles, or squares. Then, paint the exposed areas with your favorite color. This design works well with neutral colors like black, white, and gray or bright colors like yellow, orange, and green.
Use decoupage to add texture and patterns
Decoupage is a fun and easy way to add texture and patterns to your plant pots. All you need is a paintbrush, Mod Podge, and tissue paper or pattern paper. Cut the paper into small pieces, apply mod podge to the pot, and then place the paper on the pot. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles and then add another coat of Mod Podge on top. You can create a patchwork effect or create a pattern like stripes or dots.
Wrap them with twine or rope
Another creative way to decorate plant pots is to wrap them with twine or rope. This method works particularly well for terracotta pots. Start at the top of the pot, apply a small amount of glue, and then wrap the twine or rope tightly around the pot. Keep going until you reach the bottom of the pot. Once the pot is covered, you can leave it as is or add some embellishments like beads or charms.
Add a mosaic pattern with tiles
If you have some broken tiles lying around, you can use them to create a mosaic pattern on your plant pot. Break the tiles into small pieces and then arrange them on the pot. Use grout to fill in the gaps between the tiles. Once the grout is dry, you can sand down any rough edges or add a sealer to protect the design.
Create a dipped effect with paint
The dipped effect is a trendy and stylish way to decorate plant pots. All you need is some paint and painters tape. Tape off the part of the pot you want to leave unpainted and then paint the bottom of the pot with your chosen color. Allow the paint to dry, remove the tape, and then you have a chic and modern plant pot.
