"French Made" Metal Pot

If you want to transform an ordinary metal pot, some black acrylic paint and some decals will make wonders. Use a small brush or a tissue and paint the borders of the pots with black acrylic paint to give them a distressed look. Let them dry. Apply waterslide decal paper with desired graphic - the French ephemera images from The Graphics Fairy are truly amazing! Use metal pots in different sizes and shapes and you'll have the perfect neutral decor for any season :)
Use them with fresh and dried flowers by the windows
Or to hold small things around your home

      Judy, I'm only using waterslide decal paper for my projects, I've never tried clear sticker paper before. But if you can print your favorite images on this type of paper, you should definitely give them a try! :)
