G'day guys.
Today we are going to be making a glitter flower pot.
So I have made Neon painted flower pots which were bright and really brighten up our garden.
But I wanted to add a little bling to the garden.
So I have got some glitter flower pots to show you today.
So if you would like to learn how to do that.
Then please stick around but first if you are not subscribed then hit that red button.
It will just let you know when I upload videos.
Alrighty let's get cracking.
Supplies you will need for this glitter flower pot.
Terracotta pot, some gold metallic spray paint, PVA glue or you could use Mod Podge, some
chunky gold glitter, a piece of paper to collect up the excess glitter, a sponge brush and
clear acrylic sealant.
So that it keeps the glitter and the gold spray paint on the pot.
Firstly take your pot outside and then spray it with the gold spray paint.
Spray it all over it, but don't worry if you don't get too much on the lip.
Cause that is wear the glitter will go.
And then leave it to dry.
After it had dried which took about 30 minutes.
Then I applied the PVA glue and used my sponge brush to spread it out.
I only did a section at a time.
So that I could ensure there was full coverage of glitter in that section before moving onto
the next section.
Pour your glitter onto the white piece of paper and then dip your flower pot into the
glitter.
Ensuring that it is fully covered with glitter in that section where your glue is.
Before you move onto the next section.
Once that is covered then move onto the next section.
Applying your glue, spreading it out with your sponge brush so that it a nice thin layer.
Then dip your pot into the glitter.
If you are enjoying this you might also like my dishwasher safe DIY Glitter Mug. I can leave
a link for that below in the description box if you would like.
My glitter stash was getting a bit thin, so I added some more glitter to it.
You need to make sure you have a lot of glitter there it just makes it a lot easier.
So keep repeating those same steps for each section.
Apply the PVA glue spread it out with your sponge brush then dip into the glitter, make
sure you have got all the glitter in that section, If you haven't just keep going back
until you do.
And keep making sure that your glitter is nice and thick on your piece of paper.
Not thin!
If it is thin it will just make it a lot harder to get the glitter on where you want to get
it.
Now I am up to my last section so if you are not subscribed to my DIY channel then please
do.
Just hit the red button.
As I create a new DIY video each Wednesday.
After it is all covered then just run your finger over the top of the terracotta pot,
just to get off the excess glitter.
Cause you don't want it to all dry and then for you to flick it off and for it to take off a whole section.
So I figured while it was still wet.
I'd take off a lot that was sticking out the top.
Don't forget to recycle your excess glitter.
Using that piece of paper that we have had the glitter on.
Pour your glitter back into it's glitter container.
Leave overnight to completely dry.
And then take outside and spray with a clear acrylic sealant.
That will just hold the glitter and the spray paint on the pot.
Thanks for watching guys.
I hope you enjoyed this flower pot.
As you can see it's quite simple but it looks really good.

Alrighty I will see you next Wednesday for another DIY Wednesday.
BYE!
