Fingerprint Flower Pot Supplies Needed:
- Unglazed Terra Cotta Clay Pot {around $1 at Home Depot & Lowe’s}
- Red, Yellow, and Black Acrylic Craft Paints
- Fine Black Sharpie Marker
Instructions to Decorate Your Pot:
- Transfer a little bit of each color of paint to a paper plate.
- For the ladybug, dip your child’s thumb in the red paint, dab a bit off so it’s not too much paint, and help them press onto the pot, carefully lifting it away. After the paint has dried completely, use a sharpie marker to add legs, dots, lines, etc.
- For the flowers, dip your child’s middle finger into the black paint, dab a bit off so it’s not too much paint, and help them create a center dot for the flower. After the black dot has dried completely, dip your child’s pointer finger in the yellow paint, dab a bit off so it’s not too much paint, and help them create petals around the center black dot. Reapply yellow paint as necessary.
- Continue the process, adding as many ladybugs and flower as you would like.
- Once the pot has dried completely, add some potting mix, a cute flower or houseplant, and ENJOY your child’s sweet little work of art!
