One of my neighbours had this plant pot on her balcony. It was cracked and was chipping away everywhere. I imagine a few years ago it was beautiful, but that was no longer the case. No one wanted this pot now except me, who saw its full potential.<\/p>\n
I like to give a second life to a piece of furniture or other objects and this plant pot deserved to be rejuvenated, I decided to restore this plant pot. A project that I loved creating and was very simple to do.<\/p>\n
Choose a colour<\/a> that matches your decor and let your imagination run wild. I loved creating texture with the plaster. In addition to making it more resistant, it created an interesting visual.<\/p>\n Here are the steps to restore any plant pot.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/colorantic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2.png” alt=”chalk paint” title_text=”Vintage decoration” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.26.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”51%” max_width=”71%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”List of products used” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Divers produits Colorantic” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”18px” custom_margin=”31px||-7px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/colorantic.com\/en\/our-products\/” button_text=”Colorantic products” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” button_bg_color=”#c481b0″ button_border_color=”#c481b0″ custom_margin=”||39px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Steps” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Explications du processus” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” inline_fonts=”ABeeZee” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n To restore a plant pot, firstly, we must use plaster to repair and solidify the structure.<\/p>\n Then a little sanding of the plaster and the pot is necessary. Importantly, the plaster should be spread with rubber gloves to protect your hands. Wait several minutes and let everything dry completely.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/colorantic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/3.png” alt=”chalk paint” title_text=”interior design” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”62%” max_width=”72%” custom_margin=”||48px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Explications du processus” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||27px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Secondly, have fun with whatever colours you choose. In this case I used the Colorantic Cotton Ball chalk paint<\/a>.<\/p>\n I made a small mixture with leftover chalk paint colours that I had on hand. Don\u2019t be afraid to mix different colours of Colorantic paint to create new colours. This gives a totally unique and original colour.<\/p>\n In the last step, we finish with natural beeswax<\/a> which will serve as a good protection.<\/p>\n Be aware that natural beeswax takes several days to dry and must be spread in a very thin layer. The texture can be sticky, if you put too much on, I suggest you remove the excess with a white cotton cloth, t-shirt style.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/colorantic.com\/en\/shop\/” button_text=” Shop” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” button_bg_color=”#c481b0″ button_border_color=”#c481b0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Project completed” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”logo Colorantic” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Explications du processus” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||33px|||” custom_padding=”11px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n I tell you, all those who had the chance to see my plant pot in real life, really liked the final result!
