sanded the pot after it dried for extra character.
I then painted the applique with the same paint, I only did one applique and saved the other for another project.

I then glued the applique to the pot, I used some hot glue but if you’re going to use that make sure you apply it thinly and on the edges so it doesn’t “bleed” through the fabric.
This is how the first pot looked at the end.
Now I’m going to show you how I made the other flower pot using a doily
Doilies are very easy to find nowadays, you can go to the thrift shop, garage sales or even ask your grandma but if you still can’t find it, Michaels has them too…but the new type… I prefer the vintage feel for this project so if you end up with a newer type, wash it in tea for a few minutes, dry and use… it’ll look just as old as mine..

I cut the center of the doily to create the trim.
I then glued it onto the edge of my pot with hot glue.
