    INSTRUCTIONS

    NOTES:

    Let dry completely between painting steps.

    1. Start with three plain pots. Gather all of your supplies such as paints and brushes.
    2. Instruction #1
    3. Paint one pot using Reminisce; then, paint the second pot using Reminisce lightened with a few spoonfuls of Everlasting. Then use even more Everlasting to lighten the paint for the third pot. The goal is to make the paint progressively lighter for each pot to achieve an ombre effect.
    4. Instruction #2
    5. Once the pots are dry, apply a coat of Ultra Matte Varnish to protect each pot. Then insert faux succulents into each pot and display.
