A little bit of greenery can really breathe life into a room. But add some modern, fun kawaii planters and you have a menagerie of houseplants that will give you positive vibes all year long! Whether you are looking to add a little life to your windowsill or boost your productivity at work (adding plants does actually help with that, I know, crazy right?) give these plant display ideas a try today. While you are at it, why not make a few for your family, friends and coworkers.
This totally kawaii bear planter is much easier than he looks. With a pencil draw a ‘U’ shape in the middle of a DIY Square Flowerpot. Draw a line around the flowerpot connecting the tops of the ‘U’ shape. Next, draw ears, a nose and mouth. Use a flat bristled paint brush to paint in the drawn areas and allow time for the acrylic paint to dry. Use a White Paint Marker to draw little lines on his body to create ‘fur’. A Black Paint Marker makes painting in his mouth and eyes a breeze! You can make him as cute as you want by adding your own flair or follow the picture to make yours just as kawaii as mine. I think I will name mine Barnaby.
Make everyone green with envy with this Modern Boho Square Flower Pot Idea. Simply place a piece of washi tape around the DIY Square Flowerpot creating two sections. Use a flat bristled paint brush and acrylic paint to paint the top and plate of the pot. Allow time for the paint to dry. Use a Black Paint Marker to draw lines onto the pot. The beauty of this planter is that the less uniform the drawn lines are the more character the pot has. Once the lines are drawn, it’s time to pot your plant. Don’t you just love this modern free-spirited look!
Doodling on Ceramic Chalkboard Flower Pots takes your plants from ‘meh’ to major plant lady status. And speaking of ‘plant lady’, why not make a mini plant lady of your very own! Use a White Paint Marker to draw face and hair onto a Ceramic Chalkboard Flower Pot. Dip a round pencil eraser into pink acrylic paint to create eye catching cheeks. Now all there is left to do is to add your plant which makes the perfect hairdo, don’t ya think?
While you are getting your doodle on, try using a White Paint Marker to handwrite a simple saying, or draw on a tribal pattern of lined triangles onto Ceramic Chalkboard Flower Pots. Whimsical colored in scallops make a fun and easy addition to these otherwise rustic plant pots.
If your houseplants need a bit of bright colored flair, then this DIY is for you. Simply place pieces of thin washi tape around the teapot creating different sections. Use a flat bristled paint brush and acrylic paint to fill in the sections. You can also add a bit of bling to your teapot by filling in a few sections with Silver Glitter. I recommend filling in the glitter parts once all of the other sections are dry. Select a paint that matches your glitter and shake the glitter onto the paint while it is still wet. Peel off the washi tape once all the paint is dry. Don’t forget to add a cute chalkboard plant stake and your plant of course!
These Mini Terra Cotta Pots add a touch of simple sophistication to your house plants. Simply place pieces of thin washi tape around the pot creating sections. Use a flat bristled paint brush and acrylic paint to paint the pot. You can also add a bit of modern flair to your pot by lining the painted area with Gold Washi Tape. Make the washi tape thin by simply cutting it in half. Use a Gold Paint Pen to paint the rim of the pot.
This easy paint stroke technique boasts an edgy take on the modern minimalist aesthetic. Water down some gray acrylic paint with water. Use a flat bristled paint brush to apply the paint to a DIY Ceramic Teacup Planter and allow time for the paint to dry. Add paint strokes of pink and black making sure to overlap the colors. Use a Black Paint Marker to draw on small clusters of dots and a Gold Paint Pen to create organic paint drips. Be sure all the paint is completely dry before potting your greens.
If your inner plant lady style is more kawaii than sophisticated, try making this Super Kawaii DIY Plant Lady Flowerpot. On a DIY Ceramic Teacup Planter, use a Black Paint Marker to draw two ‘U’ shape eyes adding lines to make her some cute eyelashes. Draw a tiny semicircle for the mouth and straight lines starting at the top of the pot for hair. Using a flat bristled paint brush and acrylic paint, paint on two large round pink cheeks. Stamp a saying onto the teacup plate using a fun stamp set and a Staz-On® Ink Pad. Nothing says kawaii more than pink bows. Make a small bow out of pink felt and hot glue it to the pot.
