Kids can give Mom a bouquet and a card in one with one of these handpainted planters.

What you'll need

  • Clean, dry terra-cotta pot
  • Pencil
  • Cray-Pas oil pastels (available at art supply stores)
  • Acrylic paint and brushes, optional

How to make it

  1. First sketch a design on the pot with a pencil, since the oil pastels are permanent. Then decorate with the pastels.

  2. For a more colorful base, brush on a coat or two of acrylic paint first, let the paint dry overnight, then color on the pot.

  3. As a crowning touch, add a flowering plant to the pot before presenting it to Mom.
