How to Make Felt Plant Pot
Felt plant pots can add a touch of warmth and coziness to your home décor while also providing a space for your charming plants to grow. Crafting a felt plant pot is an easy DIY project that anyone can do, and the result is a unique and eco-friendly home accessory. In this article, we will guide you on how to make a felt plant pot in a few simple steps.
Materials Needed
Before starting, you will need to gather a few materials:
Felt fabric - choose the colors and patterns that fit your taste and home décor
Scissors - for cutting the felt material into the required shapes
Glue gun - for sticking the felt pieces together
Needle & thread - for sewing or strengthening the pot corners
A circular dish - depends on the size of the pot you are making
Marker - for tracing the dish on the felt fabric
Instructions
Now that you have everything you need, follow these simple steps:
Trace the circular dish on the felt fabric and cut two circles.
Cut the felt fabric into strips of equal height that can wrap around the circles' sides. (The width depends on your preference.) You can add more or fewer strips depending on the pot's size.
Next, using the glue gun, stick the felt strips vertically around the edge of one of the circles. Ensure that the strips are touching and held securely.
Take the other circle and carefully glue the felt strips vertically around the edge of this circle.
Now, turn the circle with the strips inside out and glue both circles together, ensuring the edges are parallel and held firmly.
Once the circles are securely glued to the strips, you can use a needle and thread to sew or reinforce the corners of the pot.
The last step is to remove the dish from the pot carefully. You can choose to leave the rim of the dish protruding or cut it smoothly at the pot's edge.
