So what do you do when you go into Michael’s and the Martha Stewart paint is on sale for $1 and you get an extra 20 percent off your entire purchase. If you’re sane you probably buy one or two. However, if you’re like me, you grab one in every color and do a little happy dance in the aisle. Don’t judge, I’m a craft junky. So you can probably guess what happened next… yep, I’ve gone paint crazy over here. And one of my lucky victims is the jute planter that I made two years ago. I gave it a little update with some mint green paint.
This is a really easy project to do and it only requires jute, a can, hot glue, and paint. You’re basically wrapping jute around a can but you can find the written step by step directions here or you can just look at the pictures below.
