How to paint zig zag and wavy stripes with quotes on planter pots

I am in love with quotes! Yes indeed I am. I have designed tons of adult coloring pages based on quotes and I have quotes all over my house and yard. My latest quote embellished items are these giant 22 inch Fiskars planters.

They were fun and easy to make.

I used Frog Tape in the chevron pattern and the scalloped pattern.

I simply ran 2 strips around the top edge to form a stripe. To prevent spray paint getting on the pot below the stripe I used some newspaper sale flyers.

I used the box the pots came in as a stand while painting them.

Now that I had a nice scallop and chevron stripe on each of the pots it was time to embellish and write the quotes.

I used 2 Krylon paint pens. 1 in gold and one in black.

The 2 quotes I wrote were:

"Don't go through like, grow through life."

and

"We never really grow up. We only learn how to act in public."

I simply hand lettered around the pot adding some swirls as well for fun.

I highly recommend dressing up flower pots and planters with quotes. It is just another thing to make you smile around your house.
