Fabric Fresh : DIY Chalk Plant Pots

So I wanted to buy a cactus but I couldn't find a nice pot that would mix with my desk deco, so I decided i make my own...

I got the chalk/black board paint from the range £4.99

Then I brought two cactus from B&Q for £2 each...

Then I decided to do two different designs to try out the paint...

Here is where I started a brush, the paint, the pots that the cactus already came in and some newspaper to cover the surfaces...

For the first pot I decided to just see what the paint look liken the pot and paint the bottom half of the pot i didn't do this on point or in straight lines as you can see...

For the second design I decided to use tape to cover the top and bottom on the pot not on point or straight lines as you can see then I just painted wherever the tape wasn't...
