Materials Needed:
Small terracotta planters
White lollipop sticks
Foam conversation heart shapes
Hot glue gun
Colored tissue paper
Ivory colored chalk paint
Paintbrush
How to make this fun Conversation Heart Planter:
1. Paint a coat of Ivory chalk paint over the terracotta pots. You do not need to paint the inside of your pots unless you want to.
2. Once the paint is dry, crumple up a piece of tissue paper in your choice of color, and place it into your planter. You can fluff it up or push it down until you get the look you desire. We used green tissue paper to resemble grass, but you can use any color you like.
3. Glue a conversation heart foam shape to the top of each short, cake pop stick. You can use as many or as few of these sticks per planter as you like.
4. Place the sticks down into the tissue paper in the planter until you have them set up in a design that you like.
