Ombre Pot

Wow your guests with this inexpensive, beautiful Ombre pot painted with Rust-Oleum® Painter’s Touch+ Satin spray paint!

STEPS

1. PREPARE: Always work in a well-ventilated area. Cover the ground and any nearby items with a drop cloth to protect from spray mist. Place the large white pot upside down. Wipe clean with lint-free cloth, removing all dust.

2. PAINT: Shake can for 1 minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Using the lighter colour of the two paints, spray the pot in a sweeping back and forth motion, beginning 20cm from the ground and continuing until 20cm from the top. Hold the can 25-40cm from the surface, slightly overlapping with each stroke. For best results, while spraying, keep the can the same distance from the surface and keep the can in motion. Continue spraying and moving around the pot until a solid band of colour in the middle of the pot (with feathered edges) is achieved. Allow it to dry for 3 minutes. Using the darker paint, spray the pot in large sweeping back and forth motions starting 20cm from the top of the upside down pot, and continue until a uniform band at the top of the pot (with feathered edges) is achieved. Continue spraying and moving around the pot until the upper portion of the pot is a solid colour.

3. FINISH: Allow the pot to fully dry for 24 hours before handling. Turn upright, and place a plant inside!
