The No-Sew Trick For Adorable DIY Flower Pot Covers
Biophilic interior design is alive and thriving — literally. It involves bringing the outside inside to improve mental well-being and connect with your surroundings. Some studies even suggest indoor plants play a role in air purification and physical health. While there's no shortage of greenery at local garden centers, plant lovers do sometimes run out of containers to store them in. Finding pots that reflect your design vision is pricey. Fortunately, with a little Mod Podge and some fabric, you can transform the most basic flower vessel into something truly special.
This craft is one of the easy ways to take your planters from boring to beautiful. It's suitable for any DIY experience level and is completely customizable. Even the pickiest of decorators can find a style to enjoy. Any pot you own can be completely upcycled with a little artistic ingenuity. Choose from a wide range of gorgeous prints and colors and transform something old or basic into something new and chic. Check out how to create high-end home decor planters for less by gluing on fabric, and bring nature into your home.
Getting to work on your flower pot covers
Before you get started filling your home with decorative covered planters, you'll need to pick up a few supplies. The main item on the list is a flower holder. You can use one from around the house or grab a pack of 6 Vensovo terracotta pots online. Once you've chosen the best indoor containers to help your plants thrive and grow, all you need is some fabric, a paintbrush, and some Mod Podge. Now you're ready to get crafting.
Start by making a quick pattern of the pot using paper and a marker to measure out how much fabric you'll be using. Once your pattern is complete, place it over the fabric and cut to match, leaving two inches on top and bottom to curl around the planter. Spread a thick layer of Mod Podge around the exterior, bottom, and inner rim, and apply the fabric material, smoothing and tucking as you go. This technique is best for faux plants or with an interior planter holding real flora for proper drainage.
If you want to use these outside, or fill them with real flowers, be sure to use the Outdoor Mod Podge product and keep the bottom of the pot clear of fabric. Jazz up your container with further embellishments like ribbon, lace, beads, or gemstones to suit your style. You can even experiment with the design by spray painting the pot first and applying the material below the lip to give a modern edge. However you personalize them, you'll have a home full of unique stylish biophilic elements.
