Step-by-step
Step 1
Find our instructions for sewing your own plant basket here. Wash and dry the fabric or ready-made cover beforehand as this helps the ink adhere better. To prevent the ink bleeding through to the inside of the cover while you’re drawing, it’s a good idea to insert a piece of cardboard.
Step 2
The textile markers and pens are ready to use straight away, so just think up a nice pattern and get started – be as creative as you like. To fix the ink, iron the design on the no-steam setting. Important note: To make your pot covers waterproof, line them with a layer of plastic sheet.
