flower pot photos

hi again its me and today i'm going to do a diy post on a diy called flower pot photos. its a really fun craft and i think some if not most of you will like it:)

the materials you will need are:

-approximately 3"/7.5cm diameter clay pot with tray

-acrylic paint: yellow, brown and green

-fake flowers (i used sun flowers) (as many as you need to hold all of your photos)

-spanish moss

-1yd/.95m gold cord

-glue, all-purpose glue gun and glue sticks

-styrofoam (enough to fit inside the pot)

-photos and lightweight cardboard

-round paint brush

-new pencil eraser (clean)

-toothpick

1. paint the cardboard brown if it isn't already. cut 1 3/4"/4.5cm circles from the cardboard. if the photos are the right size as is, use them, if not make colour copies and cut out the faces, center them on the cardboard and glue them in place. glue the gold chord around each photo circle, then glue the circles onto the flowers middle

2. (change this step to match your flower) dip the pencil eraser into brown paint and stamp flower centers around the border of the pot,leave some space around them for pedals. let that dry and then clean the eraser. then stamp yellow pedals around the middles. before you let that dry take a toothpick and "pull" the paint so that the tip of the pedal is pointed, then paint green leafs on the unused space o the brim with your paint brush. let it dry.

3. glue the gold cord around the bottom of the brim of the pot.

4. glue the pot to the center of the plate, then glue the Styrofoam into the pot, trim the stems of the fake flowers to the desired length then insert them into the styrofoam, then glue the spanish moss on all the exposed areas of styrofoam.

 DONE!!!!!

have fun making this and I'll talk to you soon:)
