*sponsored by Krylon    

Hiya associates. I hope you’ve been effectively and also you’ve been having fun with the hotter climate.
I needed to share a straightforward out of doors undertaking with you immediately. This little lantern turned planter is so cute and kooky and all it took was the facility of spray paint to present it a brand new life. I used my favourite spray paint model, Krylon, to finish this undertaking. I really like Krylon as a result of it’s so straightforward to make use of and ideal for any craft undertaking I’m engaged on!

That is what it appeared like earlier than. I debated whether or not I ought to use the Krylon Fusion All-In-One spray paint in Satin Black that I had used to make over the bench, or go together with one among Krylon’s many other color options. You’ll be able to see the bench HERE.

However I opted to go together with the Fusion all in One in the color Spanish Moss. I believe it seems so cute and I like how the inexperienced can incorporate into the backyard so effectively.  To arrange the terrarium: I first lined the glass panels with cardboard and spray painted the skin. As soon as dried,  I positioned the cardboard on the within and spray painted the within of the lantern.  I allowed it to dry utterly. I then lined the underside pf the lantern with a black plastic bag and positioned a layer of rocks. The rocks function a method to hold the moisture off the roots. (Alternatively, you may drill a gap on the backside and proceed planting as normal) As soon as I positioned the layer of rocks, I positioned the crops and lined them with soil. To complete it off, I lined it with some moss.

I really like how straightforward The Fusion All In One Spray Paint  adheres to any floor and doesn’t require any prep or priming.  It makes it so excellent for any undertaking. These little terrariums are really easy to care for as a result of they create their very own setting and feed off one another so long as you discover crops that share the identical necessities. Additionally they would look nice as a centerpiece in your out of doors desk.

I hope you loved this little undertaking. See you quickly.

a lot love,

Lucy
