Step-by-step
Step 1
First, clean the flower pot. It should be as clean and dry as possible. We recommend that you spray paint outdoors if possible. Make sure you have all the materials you need before starting.
Step 2
Before you start spray painting, cover your work surface with sheets or paper. Visit our spray basics manual for tips on how to achieve perfect results.
Step 3
Spray the universal primer on the outside of the flower pot and leave it to dry for approx. 15 minutes. You can then continue spraying with mellow mint. We recommend that you spray paint from a distance of approx. 25 cm using horizontal and vertical strokes to ensure more even coverage. Leave the paint to dry for approx. 30 minutes.
Step 4
Once the paint is completely dry, you can draw on your favourite emoji using the gloss paint markers: black for the eyes, mouth and any hair, and white for any extra details.
