Items needed:
clay pot
white glue (clear drying)
hot glue gun (optional) for larger additions such as rose buds
suggested coatings:
- rosemary
- thyme
- artemisia
- seeds of all sorts
- moss
- bay leaf
- rose leaf
- tiny rose buds
- sticks and stems
- seed pods
- even sand... just to name a few. Be imaginative!
Working with a small area at a time, take clay pot and apply a generous amount of glue to the outside of the pot. Pat the dried leaves or seeds on the glue. Repeat this on another area of the pot. Do only a little at a time. Allow to dry before continuing. (This eliminates smears and messes) Continue until the outside of the pot is covered. Let dry before handling. Add a pretty ribbon just below the rim. ( Optional: apply tiny rose buds with hot glue gun along the outer side of rim.)
*** Use pot for decorator purposes only, with artificial flowers and such, not for real planting of live plants.
