Thanks For Helping Me GROW flower pots

These are the pots I made for my daughter's teacher and teacher's assistants.
These were super easy (except for taking the time for the paint to dry.)

Estimated time for completion: 40 minutes (not including drying time)
Estimated cost: roughly $10 (depending on if you have the paint and what plants you choose)

Things you'll need:

Ceramic plant pots
Black paint
White paint
Yellow paint
Paint brush
Tape measure (I'd suggest a non rigid one!)
Flowers
Soil

1. Clean and dry your ceramic pots.

2. Paint the bottom portion of the pots black.

3. Once the bottom is dry, paint the top portion yellow.  Also make sure to paint the top part inside the pot too.

4. Once this is completely dried (you may need to paint a couple of layers) pull out your tape measure.  These particular pots were HUGE.  On the first one, I measured out the exact inch, but it was really crowded (this is the one on the right of the picture).  So on the subsequent ones, I made it a 2 inch scale (this is the one on the left and the one in the back).  Anyway, paint the ruler across the top.

5.  When this has tried again, paint your saying on the black portion in white to create the chalkboard look.

6. Once this had dried AGAIN, place your soil up to the bottom of the ridge.  Plant your flowers and water.

Again, another easy project.
