Quickie plant pot tutorial
-
Make pattern, or resize this one for your needs. S.A. means seam allowance, in this case about 1/2" to overlap.
-
Trace onto cardstock or lightweight cardboard. Add S. A. Two layers make a stiffer pot. This is a single layer of construction paper, which will be too flimsy to use, but it shows the method.
-
Cut out, roll, and glue S.A. Hold with clip while glue dries.
-
Put lots of glue on bottom (narrow end) and place on scrap of paper.
-
Weight and wait while glue dries.
-
Trim off excess base. Paint or cover with paper clay or maybe punched paper shapes.
Add a plant. Take a blurry picture.
You can use a variety of plastic caps for plant pots, not just glue stick caps; toothpaste caps are especially nice for small pots in 1:12 scale.
