I'll be honest, I'm not a huge fan of terracotta pots. They always seem so earthy to me, which is not necessarily a palette that I love. However, we have a super easy DIY to transform a classic terracotta planter into something a bit more modern and chic! You only need four supplies, and chances are, you already have a few of them lying around the house. You can make multiple at once for a cute mix-and-match indoor garden like shown above. Check it out…
You'll need…
- terra cotta pots
– label stickers (circle, tab)
– primer
– spray paint
Here's how…
1. Place stickers in a pattern however you'd like on the pot.
2. Spray a coat of primer to help your paint adhere to the terra cotta (the paint may run if you skip this step!). Let dry for 10 minutes.
3. Spray with spray paint. Let dry 20 minutes.
4. Peel off stickers and voila!
You can use just circle shapes or square ones or do a little bit of both!
I love how they look playful yet chic all at the same time!

I love this! I always find terra cotta pots at the flea markets and never buy them. Will definitely pick some up now to try this out.
Thanks Carrie!
