We loosely followed this Witches Cauldron tutorial from Make Life Lovely. We wanted our pot of gold to look realistic and like it's been buried for a long time.
Materials needed include plastic pot, glue, sand, paintbrush, black spray paint, Mod Podge Spray,
Mix sand with glue and cover the outside of the pot. It works better to have the sand and glue next to each other and to dip your paintbrush in the glue then in the sand. Let it dry.
Next give it several coats of black spray paint. You can see some green in the picture. I had several spots where I had to add more sand and the black chipped off. So after fixing that I sprayed it with Mod Podge Spray.

Love the old and crusty look .This would be cool on flower pots also .
ReplyDeleteThanks, NanaMolly, did you see the tutorial I followed? They made it look like a witch's cauldron that had years of brew spill over the sides. Not the look I was going for, of course, but it looked great!
