Fabric Covered Flower Pot Tutorial

Craft Basics· Fabric Crafts· Home Decor

I have a confession – I’m totally obsessed with flamingos right now. Anything that I see with a flamingo on it immediately goes in my shopping cart, so as soon as I saw this fabulous flamingo fabric, I knew I had to make something with it. I decided that my front porch needed a pop of pink and some flamingos so I decided to make this fabric covered DIY flower pot. And now, I’ve come to the conclusion that everyone needs a pink flamingo flower pot!

Supplies needed to make your own fabric covered DIY flower pot:

  • Fat Quarter Fabric (I used Pink Flamingos)
  • Paper Mache Flower Pot
  • Outdoor Mod Podge
  • Paint Brush
  • Pencil
  • Scissors

Fabric Flower Pot SuppliesSpread fabric out with the design side down. Place flower pot in center of fabric towards the top.

Fabric Flower Pot Step 1Hold your pencil on rim of flower pot. Roll the flower pot to the left while tracing a line. Place flower pot in the center and roll to the right while tracing a line. Repeat with bottom of flower pot.  Cut the fabric an inch above and below the pencil line.  Your fabric should be in the shape of an upside down U.

Fabric Flower Pot Step 3Apply a layer of Mod Podge to flower pot. Wrap fabric around flower pot while pressing firmly to make sure the fabric is smooth. Apply another layer of Mod Podge over fabric.

Flamingo Flower Pot Step 4Fold Fabric over the top and bottom of the flower pot and apply more Mod Podge to keep fabric in place.  The fabric will fold over a little.  Let dry completely.

Fill flower pot with flowers.

How cute is this flamingo DIY flower pot?!

Like I said earlier – everyone needs a flamingo flower pot. I even think it’s cute to use as a utensil caddy. Instead of adding flowers, fill it with spoons, forks and knives the next time you’re having a party.

diy flower pot consumer crafts unleashedThis is a great way to add a pop of color to your patio and the possibilities are endless. Use different fabrics for different seasons. I just ordered pineapple fabric because I definitely need a pineapple flower pot too. Now I just need to find unicorn fabric.

    Kara, I too, suddenly have a passion for Flamingo’s. Which is very weird, I used to hate them and then one day…….I was in love with them. So I understand your sudden interest!!!! I love the flower pot. Obviously we can’t put real flowers in that being its not a “real” flower pot, capable of holding water without falling apart, but it sure is cute!! And I love it. I’m going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow to see if I can find one and then to look for the fabric. Thank you for such an easy and cute project!!!
