Easy look to have exclusive pieces in your garden
You don’t need to be an art expert to try out ideas for painting flower pots. The real beauty of this business is that it is fun, creative and perfect for people of all ages and abilities.
However, with different prints, colors and effects that you can create in a vase, it can be difficult to know where to start when planning the design, and for that we have compiled some inspirations that you can try at home:
Straight: Before starting with any of your painting ideas, clean the jars using warm soapy water. This also applies to new pots, as dust can build up inside them and affect the finish.
1. Polka dots
Use dish sponges to create a layer of texture in a container, then with a brush create a dot effect!
2. Hanging cans
This DIY project manages to brighten up your garden, whether hanging over a dining table or adorning a pergola or walkway. The wheels of an old bicycle are given new life with layers of colorful shades, while cheerful geraniums are planted in recycled cans.
Use the spray paint of the color of your choice and let it dry. Then apply a second coat if necessary. Don’t forget to use a drill to make drainage holes in your garden planter and to hang the pots from the wheels.
3. Bonding
The cool thing about this idea is that it uses strips of colored tissue paper with glue on top to create the striped effect.
4. minimalist
How about aligning your garden boxes with the style of your home? Choose a simple design for a minimalist look or contrast it with a bold and bright style to add a focal point.
This abstract motif looks super contemporary and adds movement to the plant display. To create your vases painted this way, paint them white first and then brush the black paint on top.
5. Essential and chic
Perfect for starters, this look isn’t overly ambitious, but it’s still a step up from a single color scheme. Use masking tape to ensure a clean edge and make sure your first color is completely dry before applying the contrast layer.
6. With numbers
With the addition of some painted numbers, these pretty clay pots are a really fun front garden idea that can work in any space. If you are sure, draw freehand or enjoy stencils for an elegant finish.
7. With little flowers
If you opt for a floral pattern, take the time to really focus on the painting. Draw on paper first and transfer the patterns to a vase using a pencil. This is an excellent choice for a plant container because it blends in with the rest of the garden.
8. Plaster
Take advantage of painting to easily distinguish your different types of plants by applying chalkboard paint and then labeling them with chalk.
9. boho
Take your project to the next level with some extra embellishments. Fringes, pom poms, ribbons and other objects transform brightly colored containers into unique design objects.
10. Pop Art
Art lovers will enjoy bringing a touch of postmodernism to their gardens with these designs inspired by the Pop-Art movement.
11. Geometric
Opt for color-coordinated vases, which can vary according to personal taste. Just apply the masking tape in the desired pattern and the spray paints of your choice. Once dry, the tape can be easily removed.
