Rope Covered Flower Pot

For this flower pot I used one medium sized flower pot, two dog toys, some nautical rope, and hot glue. The items pictured are all from the Dollar Tree, but you can use other items too. Just be creative!

Whether you are on a tight budget or not you need to make this flower pot! It is easy to do, and I used a very unusual item to give this flower pot both color and texture. This will make a wonderful addition to your home décor.

Yes, that is a dog toy that you see. When I saw it I just loved the colors! Now one of the hardest parts of this DIY is getting the knots out of the dog toy. Once you have done that you need to find a way to keep the three ropes of the dog toy to stay together. With the first one I did a combination of sewing and hot glue, but when it came to adding the second dog toy rope I simply used hot glue.

I then began gluing the rope around the pot. It takes some work to connect the ropes together so that they look good but I figured that I would just make sure that part was in the back. I didn’t have enough of the dog toy rope to finish the pot so I had to use some nautical rope that I already had, but I really like how it turned out!

If you plan on using this pot outside I would suggest that you use some kind of spray to protect it. I think I will try Rust-Oleum 2X Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover Matte Clear Spray Paint. I have not used this so I am not sure how it will work.

So what do you think? I really like it! The colors are beautiful and the texture makes it so interesting. I think I might go and get more dog toys and a large container and make a basket!

I really hope that you will give this a try! Make sure you pin 📌 these pictures to Pinterest so that you will have this post for later! Also, make sure that you are following me on Facebook and Instagram for more great ideas! Thanks 💜.
