DIY: Jazzed up terra cotta pots


A month odd has gone into propagating my pineapple tops. Only one has sprouted roots. 
The other has grown a few new baby leaves, but no roots. I thought maybe it's time to have it potted.




I'd purchased a couple of terra cotta pots a while back.
On a whim, I'd decided to spruce it up this afternoon.

So here's a simple DIY on how you can make one of your own too:





First, have a pot ready.




Plot up a design and stick tape onto areas where you don't want paint to go on.




Next, in a well-ventilated area, spray paint your pot. 
I don't have a picture of that process, but I reckon is straight forward enough. 
Once dried, you can start peeling off your tape to reveal your design.




Easy peasy and so pretty.
