 I have decided to alter a large vitamin pot into a pen holder, and forgot to take a photo before  I took the label off 

 So what did I do

1. I stippled the pot with acrylic paint , using a shaving brush in  layers of blue for the sky & green for the ground

 2, I fussy cut 2 of the  flower shelf images from Bugaboo

then coloured them with Promarkers and Graphit pens

3.When the pot was dry I used PVA to stick the images on to the pot

 4. To Finish off I added Papermainia mini buttons to each of the flowers centres. Assorted card butterflies with pearls as their torso and finally blue ric-rak around the tub lid.

 .

Even if I say so myself the pot looks lovely.

Thanks for calling by
