Make these cute funny face flower pots
These cute flower pots will brighten up any garden or living room this spring. Get the whole family involved and see who can draw the funniest face!
The whole family will love getting involved and making these pretty painted flower pots, complete with their own hilarious facial expressions. Our Gemma Chandler shows you how...
If you've got a spare moment on a drizzly weekend afternoon, all you need to keep everyone entertained is to gather the kids together, pick a pot and get painting! Our decorated flower pots craft involves just two simple steps and takes about 40 minutes, including the all important paint drying time.
Best of all, you can mix it up and do whatever you want with the pots. We've painted them white and added a little cactus in each, but you can use whatever size pot and plant, and paint them any colour you like. Try adding glasses, angry faces and any decorating idea you like, maybe even a Harry Potter scar if you want to! The possibilities really are endless.
Time: Takes 40 minutes
You will need:
