HOW WE ACHIEVED THE LOOK ON OUR TERRACOTTA POT!

Our terracotta pot was really fun to do!  IOD Air dry Clay was used to create the felicite blooms and then attached whilst still wet with tarzan grip.  NB:  Dust the mould with cornflour first as this will allow the impression to just come out of the mould. Please don't over glue, otherwise the glue will spread and its difficult to paint over as it resists paint.  As this pot is round, We just had to hold each clay mould onto the pot in place until it stuck, so a quick drying glue is recommended.  Not so difficult if  you're doing a square planter.

Once all of the mouldings were adhered, we did allow them to dry, but you don't have to! Just paint with a lighter touch so as not to alter the shape of the flowers.  We gave a couple of coats of the Dulux Copper Paint and once the second coat was touch dry, the fun began again by spritzing the copper reactor over the pot.  Mainly on the mouldings, extra spritzing in some areas to allow it to drip down.

Finally, once we had the desired coloring, we added touches of copper leaf.  Sooo easy!  We randomly dabbed whats called leaf sizing, (like a pva) and left it til tacky, then applied the gold leafing with a small dry paint brush with soft bristles.  

We stock the moulds and clay.  The copper leaf, sizing  and tarzan grip are easily purchased through a craft store and we purchased the copper paint and reactor from Bunnings.

We hope you like how it turned out as much as we do!
