Hi everyone. Sorry I have been absent for a few days. Don’t worry, though. I have a super easy project that I did in a couple of minutes and want to share with you. Some of our friends brought us this great plant. I have had some issues in the past keeping plants alive, but I have a goal to keep this one going.
I loved the vibrant green and red, and hopefully, there will not be any brown added to the mix. The flower pot was a nice size, but I couldn’t help looking at it as a blank canvas.
Here is another view. I was having fun playing around with the camera and the mirror on this table.
I decided to amp up the pot with some polka dots. The first thing I did was cut out some polka dots on stencil paper. I did this with my new favorite gadget the Silhouette Cameo.
The next step is I taped the stencil to the flower pot. This wasn’t working as well as I hoped, so I just cut out a couple of the stencils and randomly placed them around as I added color to the dots.
I mixed a couple of acrylic paints that I had on hand to get this soft blue color. By all means, it is not perfect, but it is the little touch I wanted.
I’m having more fun with playing with the mirror and taking pictures!
I have my fingers crossed this one will thrive and eventually need to be replanted to a bigger pot. Then I’ll get to create bigger dots!!

Love this – I have had a thing for polka dots lately! They are so fresh and a little bit retro. Good luck with the plant! Happy Tuesday from the enchanted oven.

Wow! What a great idea and it turned out looking adorable. I think Anthuriums are so pretty and I hope yours will thrive and do well.
My comment had an error message, so I will try again. I love the plant and now the pot looks totally amazing. Great idea. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
