Steps
Step 1: Prepare Your Pots

Step 2: Apply the Primer
Place the pots on a protective surface (old newspaper). While wearing a mask, spray with a smooth sweeping motion to apply an even coat of your sealer/primer. Allow to dry completely before proceeding.

Unleash your creativity! Use White Knight Strokes & Splashes paints to add patterns, motifs, or illustrations that evoke the spirit of Easter. Consider painting bunnies, eggs, or floral designs.
