Dollar Store Planter

We have a dollar store that is going outta business. So everything was marked down. I bought these sweet little planters for 80 cents each. I loved them and they reminded me of something from Anthro. However- I wanted a color for them to really pop.
So I painted them yellow and when they were dry, I took a white glaze and painted it on the raised details with my finger.


Then, even though you probably can't tell from these pics, I also lighted sanded the raised parts- so a little of the dark underneath shows through.

Top it off with a fake dollar store strawberry plant and we are in business!
