  • Easily age your terra cotta pots resulting in a beautiful aged patina.
  • Grab whatever paint you have on hand, think creamy antique colors, a sponge and wax.  The wax will protect it from moisture and make the pots more durable.
  • Mix the paint with a good amount of wax till smooth.
  • Take a sponge and apply the paint mixture onto the terra-cotta pot leaving certain areas of the pot lightly exposed.
  • That's it, I swear, took about 2 minutes per pot.

  • Need some texture and color for your outdoor table?  Try these easy rope-wrapped and painted terra cotta pots!
  • I started with a simple terra cotta pot!
  • Starting at the top, I used my glue gun to attach the rope.
  • I finished up wrapping the pot with rope.  I snipped the rope off with scissors, and secured it down with hot glue.
  • Using left-over turquoise latex paint from another project and a standard paint brush, I painted the base of this pot.
  • Perfect outdoor centerpiece!

Adding Color and a Stencil to Wake up a Boring Piece of Furniture

Painting is one of the easiest, least expensive ways to transform anything! When you have a small piece, going bold with color is perfect. Look for the perfect hardware when you're making ...»

Great idea for Mothers day gift! Kids love making these.

Did you know that often a thrift shop throws away old tea cups if they are missing a saucer? This is how we recycle them .
