Hi there!
Hope you all enjoyed your long weekend!
I sure hope your not tired of all these little piddly projects I share with you.
Today, I have How to mod podge a terra cotta pot with fabric.
Using mod podge of course.
This was a first for me.
easy peasy!
I had this spray painted terra cotta pot laying around our back deck.
So I brought it in, cleaned it up,
and gave it a face lift.
I’m really happy I had all this fabric left from
my reupholstering my kitchen chairs
and even had some left for doing some diy utensil holders.
Even after this project, I still have some left.
anyone want it LOL?
That ric rac trim covers any little imperfections you may have.
anyone know the name of this plant?
I threw out the tag,
but I can tell you it is pretty hardy.
So far.
These two roosters look like they are going at it
don’t they?
I guess you can say, I’ve gone gingham style:)
And that is the 1, 2 3 of adding fabric to an old terra cotta pot with mod podge.
The DEETS:
I apply the mod podge in sections as I go.
I then wrapped the fabric, painted over the fabric with the mod podge and smoothed it out with my finger and brush as I went along.
That’s it, not much more detail to share on that.
Dried nicely and it compliments the kitchen decor.
And to think it all started with
reupholstering the kitchen chairs
thanks for stopping by today!
Have you seen my Mod podge gallery?
It sure is growing!~
Oh love this Debbie! The little touch of ric rac is perfect too! Great job! 😉 Bonnie
Very sweet! I love this idea so much and will definitely be using it in the near future. You’ve now shown me one more thing to do with my fabric remenants. Yay! I also am in love with your faux lemon plant. I really want that!
Deb,
Great idea and it would look so good in my RED Kitchen!! LOL!! I also want to Thank you again for hosting the Dollar Tree party. My post for that party is now my all time Most popular post!! LOL!!
Hugs,
Deb
Are you kidding? That is awesome!
Well, you might know that I am all about the mod podge. I have actually only used fabric one time before. I have starched with fabric, but I usually stick to paper, the thinner the better, for mod podge. I really love the look of these so now I want to head to my fabric stash take an inventory.
I have no clue as to the plant. I’m super stupid when it comes to plants. I could probably tell you how to kill it, though.
So far it is still alive, about a month now:) Mod podge with fabric is pretty simple, easier than I thought Debbie.
What a great idea! I love how the fabric looks on the pots. I think I will give this a try.
That is an adorable way to decorate pots. I’ve been working on a few pots myself. I will be posting them this week. I think they are going to be a big hit.
Adorable Debbie. Love the rick rack too!!! So pretty.

Love, love, love it Debbie! When I mod podge, I use Elmers Glue All. I water it down a little. It works great and is usually less expensive than Mod Podge.
I have used the same Penny, works exactly the same too!
I love the flower pot, the plant looks like a umbrella plant.
I love the red, country fabric….I guess you are starting to like it more and more, now aren’t you? Hope you had a great weekend!
Hugs,’JP
Cute idea! I love the thought of matching pots. I think the plant is scheffleria but don’t quote me.
Yeah, a dwarf scheffleria. Pretty. And I love the idea of fabric on a pot. I’m going to see what else I can mod podge it onto.
Hahaha – “gingham style”. This turned out great. I am sure you are ready to move on to a different fabric now too. lol Sad I missed the Dollar Tree party – just couldn’t pull it off last week so hopefully the next one!

Roosters + gingham , love!!!! This is such a great idea Debbie, your terra cotta pot turned out so cute!
xo, Tanya
What a cute idea…Looks so easy, even I could probably do it! Love the fabric.
Very cute! Love the roosters going at it!! Have a great day!~~Angela
It is perfect, Debbie! Love that fabric! The pot looks so pretty in your kitchen!
Debbie
This is such a cute idea I love the plaid and the piping. The color is also one of my favorite combinations. Very cute and well done!
Cynthia
That is really cute. You know I love checks and especially red ones.
This is great Debbie! I love the fabric and ric rac combo you used!
Very Debbie, and, a great compliment to your chairs.
Super cute Debbie! I love the ric rac!
cute idea!:)
That is pretty sweet there Debbiedoo! I’ve used fabric before on pots and I love them…..they really dress up the inside of a home and the choices of using cordinating fabrics with the rest of your decor is limitless! Love yours!
ME ENCANTARIA QUE LO TRADUSCAN.MUCHAS GRACIAS!
LOL…gone gingham style! That’s a good one. Love the look of the mod podged pot. It looks great with your tablescape. And those roosters do look like they’re getting after it.
You’re creativity and talent is an inspiration!
This is adorable Debbie!
XO
Thanks, Debbiedoo–that is adorable and I am going to try it for my Christmas succulent pots. Now…how did you “finish” off the bottom of the pots? Did you cut the fabric at the bottom or cover the bottom and make the hole?
Thanks!
wendy
I only cut the fabric to the edge of the pot and left the bottom free!
That plant looks like my schefflera plant. Yes they are VERY hearty. I have had mine for over 30 years. I gave it to my Dad and when he died I got it back. I’ve had it ever since.
I love your Terra cotta idea. I will be trying this out! Thanks.
