Painting a Glossy Flower Pot
How was your Mother’s Day my friends? Besides hurting my back and barely being able to move, I had a good one. My sweet kiddos made me breakfast on the patio. I melts my heart to see them so excited about doing something niece for me and I always love reading their sweet cards. I wish this time would never pass.
Even though my back hurt, I was still able to paint a little somethin-somethin.
I bought myself another Bromelia and the only pot I had in the house was this plain white Ikea pot that just wasn’t doing it for me at all. Too boring in an all white kitchen.
Kilz had sent me their Adhesion primer to try out a while back and I thought this flower pot was the perfect chance to give it a try before possibly tackling a larger project. The primer is water-based and specifically formulated to bond to a variety of ‘tough-to-paint’ surfaces like for example glossy surfaces.

My kind of project! The new color is perfect! Hope you’re feeling better!!!
love this soft blush color – it is becoming one of my new favorites!
What a beautiful color that matches the flower perfectly and your decor! I have those same pots and wrapped them with twine 🙂
What a beautiful small change!
Such a beautiful color and I love the Bromelia – don’t think I’ve ever seen one of those before!
I love that primer! I love the flower and the color is perfect!
I have a feeling that you’re a doctors worst nightmare- you just can’t sit still huh?! Such a sweet shade of pink too 🙂
Pretty! Nice to know a product that works well on ceramics. I hope your back is feeling better today!
LOVE the updated flower pot. It is such an unexpected bit of color. Hope your back is starting to improve today. I have super bad back problems, so I know how miserable that can be.

Beautiful!! You could sell your gorgeous photography of the Bromelia!
I love it! The color complements the plant so well. I have that same pot from Ikea, so I am totally inspired to try this.

What a lovely plant! I have zero luck keeping indoor plants happy, but this one is so gorgeous I just might have to consign it to death row (aka, my house)… Love it!
Happy Mothers Day love. I love the pinky/blush color. So pretty:)
That flower is beautiful! I love the blush pot! Such a great color for your kitchen!
That is the prettiest color and just goes so well with the beautiful plant!..
I need to check out this primer! The finish looks so smooth. And love the color you chose… matches the plant perfectly!
I absolutely LOVE that colour Julia. Isn’t a good primer such a blessing – then you can paint anything!!
Oh, now I want to paint all my IKEA pots. Love it in the blush color.
The colour is so pretty! Looks great in your kitchen.
So sorry you hurt your back. Hope you’re well and up to doing cartwheels soon! Beautiful plant, Julia. It looks great in your kitchen, especially with the pop of pink.
