ugly/pretty.

everybody likes making ugly things pretty.
right?
and everyone likes making simple things look not so simple.
yep.


my sister and i re-did these two ugly pots. 
{click on pictures to enlarge}
and created these two cute pots.
 seriously sooo easy.
do you know how to create a ruffle?
tutorial here.

for the yellow ruffle pot i didnt get any during pictures but all you do is create the ruffle and hot glue the line along the pot. 
easy peasy lemon squeezy.
and it turned out adorable!

now for an easy tutorial for the salmon-ish pink colored pot:

start with hot gluing the end of one ruffle line 

follow the same pattern in a swirl

keep laying the fabric down on top of the glue to keep it fastened in to place

continue the swirling process until you are satisfied with the size of the swirl.

the end!

i recommend doing the swirls a bit large so that it takes up more room on the pot.
that will help to keep the pot from looking like a ruffly mess.

they look good next to each other.
and after you see what we are planning to do with the pots, you may just fall in love ;)

until next time!
