Bring your pots to life with Paint Markers

Start by practising a few simple flower shapes, leaves and patterns on paper so you can experiment with your design before you begin. Next, prepare your Paint Markers by shaking them well, then pump the nib on a piece of scrap paper until the paint starts to flow evenly. Once your markers are ready, carefully add your flowers and patterns to the ceramic pot, taking your time as you turn and balance it while you work. Build up your design with different colours and details, and add a second layer of paint if needed to make the colours really stand out. For an extra creative touch, don’t forget about the lip of the pot — use it to add a colourful pattern, lettering or even a little message. Follow Laura’s floral design or create your own combination of flowers, colours and patterns to make a pot that’s uniquely yours.
