Instructions:
DIY Painted Faux Plants:
1. Tape off the pot and any rocks or soil that it is placed in.
2. In a well-ventilated area, spray paint the leaves. If one coat doesn’t cover the green, add additional coats until you have full coverage. Set aside to dry.
3. Take some of the acrylic paint and put it into the paper plate as your palette. Using the sponge shapes, dip the sponge into the paint and make a couple sponge marks on the plate (to make sure it’s not over or under saturated) before adding the color onto the plant.
4. Use different shapes to create different designs on each plant.
5. Set aside to dry.
