Instructions
- Tape off the bottom 3/4 of your pot with painter’s tape.
- Paint the non-taped end of the pot gold. Allow the paint to dry completely.
- Remove the tape then paint the remaining portion of the pot green. Allow the paint to dry completely.
- Cut your chenille wire in half. Working with a one-half portion of wire at a time, fold the wire in half, twisting the ends together twice to join them. Using the pliers, bow out the area in the center of the folded chenille shape, making a long football shape. Repeat with the remaining half of the chenille wire.
- Using your football shaped chenille wire, trace the shape onto the pink felt. Cut this shape out and hot glue it to the back of the corresponding chenille wire football shape.
- Hot glue one of the ear shapes to each side of each painted pot in the green painted portion of the pot.
- Using the black marker, draw on Baby Yoda’s eyes, smile, and eyebrows.
- Thread a bell onto a small amount of string then thread the ends through the center of the pot, through the hole in the bottom of the pot. Tie the ends of the thread onto the ornament hanger. Hot glue the string in place on the inside of the pot. Hang on the tree and enjoy!
