DIY Address Number Pots

DIY_Address_Pots_V

I started thinking about our fall porch weeks ago and knew I wanted several mums in different colors. I always love when I see people display their address number in unconventional ways so I decided I would make some address number pots that I could switch out the plants for the seasons. I found these small brown clay pots at Walmart and knew they would work perfect. This may be the easiest DIY I’ve ever shared but I figured I’d share it anyways!

Supplies Needed:

  • Clay Pots (One per number)
  • Stencil
  • Pencil
  • Paint – use whatever you have around the house
  • Sandpaper/Sanding Block

Steps:

Step 1: Using a stencil and pencil, create the number outlines on each pot.

(I apologize for these awful photos. I was working on these at night and the lighting is terrible in our office.)

Step 2: Paint the the numbers and let it dry

Step 3: Distress! I wanted the numbers to have a slight distressed look so I took sandpaper and distressed them. I noticed it gave the clay pot a different color when distressed so I went ahead and lightly sanded the entire pot so it all looked consistent.

Step 4: Add flowers and Voila! I got these small mums at Walmart for $0.96 each! This is such an inexpensive project and I know I will use them year round!

And here are some ways I have changed them up for the different seasons!
