This beautiful garden decoration by Museta Crafts on YouTube is unbelievably easy to make! I saw something similar to this on Pinterest before and was so happy when I found this video tutorial. What makes this even better is that the steps were so easy to follow and the additional tips were very helpful in keeping the project last for a long time. I might even make these beautiful pot projects more often as they look so beautiful around the garden.
Materials:
- 2 x 13 cm (0.7 x 5.1″) diameter pots
- 12 x 7 cm (4.7 x 2.7″) diameter pots
- Outdoor patio paint
- Screws with nuts
- Grommets
- Washers
- Rope
- Scissors and pliers
- Hot glue gun or E6000 Glue
- A pen
- Lighter
- Different size brushes
- Screwdriver
- Masking tape, optional
Directions:
Step 1
After deciding on the size of your pots, start drilling holes in them carefully making sure not to break the pots, refer to the video to see the exact spots where the holes should be, and once done, brush or wipe them well to remove the dust. Next, coat the pots with paint inside and outside, then let it dry completely before adding another layer of paint to the exterior. You can also add some small flower designs to the pots if you want.

Step 2
Start drawing the face on the larger pot and let them dry completely or up to overnight before you start assembling the pieces together. Cut ropes for the hand at 25mm (0.98″), then 30mm (1.1″) and 60mm (2.3″) for the legs, and add a grommet on top of each. Once everything is ready, assemble all of the pieces together making sure to carefully tighten the screws to avoid breaking the pots, then paint them so that they won’t rust easily. Finally, add some flowers to the head of the piece for decoration.
