Drip! Drip! Drip!

Alrighty then.  Once again, my craft idea was spawned from..  Yup.  You guessed it.  My favorite thing, Pinterest.  I seriously need a Pintervention.  Seriously.  I went over 3GB on my unlimited iphone data plan this month, although part of it was on Pandora.  Lol.  I love Pinterest.  It's awesome.  Especially when I find ideas like this!  Voila!  Drip painted pots!  Awesome idea found here!  Love it.  : )..

And then I found this drip painted pot found here..

I really love the whole drip painted pottery craze.

: )..  Soo, I gathered my paint and my pots..

And gave it a shot.

It takes a little practice, a lot of patience,

steady hands and an understanding of how

to correctly drizzle the paint.

I tried doing the painted rainbow-ish color scheme

like the first picture, but it turned out as one huge pink and yellow

blob, mostly a yellow gooey mess.

I tried a red and white one, but needed to paint the lip

beforehand.  I recycled my lighthouse pots for this week's craft project,

which were white with a blue lip.

Then, after painting the lip black and the pot yellow,

I decided on a bumblebee drip painted color scheme.

You probably know me and my love of the darker colors.  : )..

I also love bright, contrasting looks too.

I finally got the hang of the drizzle, and kept

turning my pot while dribbling the paint down the sides,

starting at the base and working my way around.

Guess where I found the knowledge to paint it correctly.

Pinterest?  Nah.  My husband, Dutch.  Lol.

He discovered the whole gooey mess and gave me a few pointers.

Worked pretty well.  Have to give him some props, lol,

after all, he painted this all by himself with small, handheld

Preval misting spray bottles.

He built it all by himself a few years ago.

Guess he's pretty crafty too.
