Hey, hey there!
thanks for stopping by today!~
Today I am sharing the HOW to mod podge on Terra cotta pots.
There is not a whole lot to it, so don’t expect this full blown step by step tutorial.
So here are the deets.
SUPPLIES:
Old cook book
scissors,
Mod podge
Terra cotta pot
fabric if your project includes such.
I always section off my pot at a time.
In other words, just use your mod podge sparingly on a section.
Adhere your pages
brush and smooth over the pages as you go along.
You can cut recipes, and just keep layering your pot until you get the look you are going for.
Of course, a little burlap and flower always completes any project I do.
I forget the name of this plant..but they are pretty hardy and hard for me to kill.
A little pot like this, takes not time at all.
Hope you try it sometime.
You may check out my Gallery of Mod podge projects for more inspiration.
Have a great weekend!

Yup, it’s cute! Love it! 🙂
This is so, so cute Debbie! Love the whole project (and your bright pretty pics) My MIL would love this for Mother’s Day!
You should make her one Shannon:)
I love it! Where did you get your scale? I need one for my house to decorate too. 🙂
Found the scale at a local antique mart here. You can find them, they are pretty much everywhere now.
So especially cute, Deb! And frugal, too….. 🙂 Sue
Too Sweet!!!!!

I love this idea, Debbie! I thought of something similar using colored wrap paper, crumpled to give it some nice texture. But with newspaper/recipe book looks even better! 😉 I like the flower, but I would use a paper bow!
Very cute idea! I remember doing something like that back in the…..let’s see….the 70s! heeheehee! It’s still fun and looks cute! Enjoy your weekend girlfriend!
Cute, Debbie!! I am loving the Mod Podge now! I may have to Mod Podge something this weekend… hmmm… 😉 xoxo, Claire
Well…don’t you know…I am in love with this project FOREVER. ! and, the good part is…I think….THINK….I might can do this. Since I am not very crafty, I’m not SURE….I’m going to give it a try, tho. A great Sat. afternoon project, if you ask me. :))
Just too cute!! I have been working in my garden and came in for a rest. There you were in my inbox. Cute as a Spring posy. I will bet you could build a car with burlap.
Love to you and the guys, Ginger
Cute, cute!

Yes, I did Julie, in the kitchen alone, I believe I have 25:)
Very Cute indeed!
So pretty Debbie! These would make perfect mothers day gifts too.You have inspired me!

This is really a great idea, Debbie, I’ve never thought of decoupaging terra cotta pots before…and there are lots of them at garage sales! Fun!
This is really a cute idea, Debbie! I’ve never thought of using newspaper. Love it!!
It’s actually vintage recipe book pages:) Thanks Denyse.
This turned out fabulous, Debbie! Love it! I have an entire pile of pots just sitting out back…hmmm….:)
Thanks for the great idea!
I am curious, since the terra cotta gets wet when you water the plant does the decoupage still stay attached? Do you think this would work on an outdoor pot if you use the outdoor kind of mode podge? Thanks for your help!
Hi Jen, I have never used the outdoor modge, but considering that is what it is made for I would read the label. I would assume that would be a yes:)
