Hand Painted Black-Eyed Susan Flower Pots
I wanted to decorate my side porch with items that reflect our surroundings. I have a gorgeous patch of Black-Eyed Susans along the brick walk up that leads to our side porch. What could be more fun than hand-painting a few bright yellow flowers on some hunter green pots?



Materials:
- clay flower pots and trays (mine were 4” tall)
- acrylic gloss spray
- 1/4 angle brush 50602 Plaid
- 0/10 spotter brush 50600 Plaid
- 1/8 angle brush 50602 Plaid
- 1” foam brush
- pencil
- Black-Eyed Susan coloring sheet- get yours here
- paints- American Yellow Ochre and Asphaltum, Folk Art True Burgundy and Vintage White, Apple Barrel 20360 Light Yellow Gloss, 20407 Hunter Green, and 20472 Leaf Green
- baby wipe
- colored chalk (a color that will contrast with the flower pot color)

Instructions:
Paint the flower pots and trays with several coats of Hunter Green using the 1″ sponge brush. Let dry. You can use a hair dryer to hurry things along.




















Blessings,
Kristie

So so pretty. i would have thought this was way to complicated but as you’ve broken it down step by step I actually think I could manage this!
Yes, with acrylic painting you fill in the colors just like a coloring book, starting with the last color your eye sees when looking at an object, working forward to the first thing it sees. ?
Wow and well done! The pots are lovely.
Thanks, Michelle!
I really love these pots! They are beautiful and special.
Thanks, Michele!
These are gorgeous and your instructions make it seem quite easy. I’ll have to try it when all the snow melts and I can plant.
Please email me a picture if you decide to make one! [email protected]
Your painted pots look lovely and match your sunflower pillow.s
Thanks, Claire! Hopefully I get motivated to put some more flowers on that porch this weekend.
The pots are darling and you make it look so easy!
Thanks Carol! It is easy, with a pattern and good directions. Hopefully, people can follow mine. Lol

Very professional results!
Thanks Michele. I dropped in your blog and read the review on the book for healing mother-daughter relationships. I love how transparent you are, about your flaws. I have a female relative (not my mother) that I would love to have a healthier relationship with. Right now, a healthy future feels impossible.
Such a lovely pots! You have talent in painting.
Thanks, Simona!
