Cacti Pot Valentine’s Gift Instructions:

I began by painting a little terra cotta pot with red and pink paint and let it dry.

Then I used some DecoFoil™ Liquid Adhesive and brushed it around the bottom of pot a let it dry until tacky.  Through trial and error, I found that just using my finger to apply the glue actually worked the best in this case!

Once dry, I applied the Deco Foil Gold Transfer Sheet (color side up!) and rubbed it on!

I added a bit of twine around the edge, and secured it with a few dabs of Fabric Fuse™ Liquid Adhesive.

Finally, I made a little heart with my cutting machine, and cut Gold DecoFoil™ letters for the word STUCK.  I first used my laminator to adhere some Gold DecoFoil™ to some Deco Foil™ PeelnStick Adhesive Backed Toner Sheets, then cut them, and just STUCK them on!
