Last week, my husband and I began sprucing up our patio and front porch.

Let’s just say both outdoor spaces are in desperate need of a little love.

While Hubby cleaned and repainted a few things, I pulled out some of my old flowerpots and went to work on loving them back to the light of day.

After cleaning out remnants of planting days gone by, I grabbed my bag of fabric scraps and spray paint, and got creative with the supplies I already had.

Every time I pulled out a new fabric scrap or tried a new technique, I became even more creative and really enjoyed trying new things.

Flowerpot Makeover for My Outdoor Space

We have a large front porch with plenty of seating and a few tables for when neighbors drop by.

I wanted to make sure this space was most vibrant, so I chose to use several patterned fabric scraps with great pops of color that blended well with the blues and spring greens I already had in the space.

I breathed life back into my flowerpots using several techniques.

Do your flowerpots need a do over?

Here are a few methods I used to take my flowerpots from drab to FAB: 

#1  → FLOWERPOTS WITH WORDS

#2  →FLOWERPOTS WITH FABRIC

#3  →FLOWERPOTS WITH AN OLD SHIRT

#4  →FLOWERPOTS WITH STRIPES, POLKA DOTS, AND A MONOGRAM
