Top Tip
When securing the string to the surface of the pot, work in small sections at a time to create a neat finish and to prevent burning yourself on the hot glue.
How to Make
- Starting at the base of the ceramic pot add a small dab of hot glue and secure the end of the string in place.
- Working in small sections at a time, apply a few dots of glue and begin wrapping the string around theentire base of the pot, pressing it in firmly to secure.
- Continue wrapping and gluing the string around the pot until the entire base of the post is covered. Cut the string and use a dab of glue to firmly secure the end at the back of the pot.
- Use a black Deco Pen to write 'hello' or your chosen word to the upper section of the pot to finish.
- Take another pot. Use a piece of masking tape to section off a strip in the centre of the upper section of the pot. Then, use the pink Deco Pen to create a neat line around the pot.
- Repeat to add orange lines using the Deco Pens above and below the pink line.
- Use the pink and orange Deco Pens to add small flower motifs evenly spaced along the lower sections of the pot.
- 8.Take a third pot. Starting just underneath the rim of the pot, secure the end of a piece of string and begin wrapping and securing with glue onto the surface until 2cm of the pot is covered in string.
- Using the black and orange Deco Pens add the work 'Grow' or your chosen word to the upper section and work a series of small triangles to the lower option of the pot.
- Starting just underneath to the rim of the pot, secure the end of a piece of string to the pot. Then, begin wrapping and securing with glue to the surface until 2cm is covered in wrapped string.
- Finish by working with the orange Deco Pen to add dots of colour to the upper section of the pot.
