Fab Flower Pot

This flower pot got gesso, lace, beads, and a transfer.



I decoupaged lace, glued beads, slathered it with gesso, and transferred with gel medium.  It works really well for storing cards and tags.



Just fab.

    I love how the beads look like they were there the whole time, Rosemary! Great image, too. These pots do make good storage containers.
