Address Number Flower Pots add a unique and personal touch to your home exterior. It is remarkably easy to make your own house number flower pots using plant pots from the garden center or big box store. Outdoor paint in your favorite bright colors or colors that coordinate with your house exterior will add some character to your home. The pony beads are cheap and add a fun whimsical touch to the flower pots. They are a great way to get the kids involved with this outdoor project. You can find the pony beads in the kids craft supply aisle or if you have kids I’m sure you can scrounge some up from pipe cleaner bracelets. I am pretty sure the bracelets multiply in the dark at our house.

Instructions for Address Number Flower Pots:
1. Clean and dry the terra-cotta pots.
2. On covered work surface, paint pots Engine Red, Yellow Ochre, Grass Green, or Pure Orange. Paint pot rims in alternating colors. Paint one pot for each number in street address. Let the pots dry between the coats of paint. You can also give the paint a light sanding between coats if the paint shows brush strokes.
3. Measure and cut 3″ circle from cardstock scrap. (Trace around bottom of bottle or bowl.) Trace circle on front of each pot.
4. Paint circles True Ochre. Add a second coat if needed and let dry between coats.
5. Use rubber stamp and Black ink to stamp number on center of each circle. Let dry.
6. Glue pony beads around circles. You can be a little generous with the glue so they do not fall off, but don’t go overboard.
7. Add favorite flowers or plants for a fun porch or window display.
