Kitchen Sink Pot

- White Craft Glue
- Water
- Bowl
- Paint Brush
- White Craft Paint
- Any Color Craft Paint

- The first step to make a kitchen sink pit would be to paint the clay pot white. Once this is done, set it aside to dry completely.
- In the meantime, cut the fabric scrap/crepe paper/streamers into small squares, each side measuring 1 inch.
- Now, paint the pot once again, with a second coat of white paint. Let it dry.
- While the pot is drying for the second time, mix white craft glue and water, taken in equal proportions, in a bowl. Stir this mixture until it combines well.
- After the pot has dried, apply the glue and water mixture on it. Place one of the squares on it. Press it a little hard, so that it sticks well.
- Continue doing this until you have created a pattern all over the pot. You can either use multiple colors or two of your mom’s favorite ones.
- Once the pot dries, paint the top rim and the area just underneath the rim, with a complementing color.
- Now, spray acrylic sealer over the pot and let it dry.
- The last step would be to fill the pot with some kitchen utensils and place it in the kitchen, for your mom to discover and feel happy about.
