Calling all Harry Potter fans! Here's a quick DIY project that is sure to cast a spell on your home decor. Place it on your bookcase or end table to add a bit of magic to your living space. The hardest thing about this project is deciding which plant to display in it.

Supplies Needed:

• Terracotta flower pot
• Two paintbrushes (one thick one for the broad strokes, and a thinner one for the details)
• Craft paint: burgundy, yellow, black, and white
• 1.5-inch round templates

Step 1

Paint your flower pot white. Let dry.

Step 2

Draw circles onto the pot with black paint. Attach the circles with a little line to make it look like glasses. (I used 1.5-inch circle punch-outs as a template, but you can also use the top of a milk jug or anything you have that is a circle shape.)

Step 3

Paint hair on the top of the flower pot with black paint. Let dry.

Step 4

Paint a lightning bolt on Harry's forehead with yellow paint. Let dry.

Step 5

Paint yellow stripes (for the scarf) on the bottom of the flower pot. Let dry.

Step 6

Finish the scarf design by adding burgundy stripes to the bottom of the flower pot. Let dry.

Step 7

Add a plant to your Harry Pot(ter)!
