How to Make a Flower Pot Sword for Your Garden Decor

How to Make a Flower Pot Sword for Your Garden Decor

Hey pal! So, you know how everyone is planting flowers and making their gardens look all nice and pretty? That’s cool n’ all, but what if you want to be the coolest kid on the block? I’ve got just the thing. Grab a flower pot and let’s make a sword! Yes, a sword, right in your garden. Think about it: while other people have boring flower pots, you’ll have a FLOWER POT SWORD. Sounds kinda epic, right? Let’s just get into it before those garden gnomes start judging us.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

First off, we need stuff. You can’t make magic without some supplies. Go grab an empty flower pot. It can be clay or plastic—whatever floats your boat.

Then you need paint (preferably silver or metallic because we’re going full medieval here), some sticks (not too big though), and glue. And maybe some glitter if you want to be fancy like a fairy princess.

Step 2: Paint Like Picasso

Okay, so next up we gotta paint that pot. So grab your brush or use your hands—who cares! Just slap that paint on there like you’re trying to cover up a bad haircut. Make sure it looks shiny and sharp like it’s ready for combat, not like it’s been through a mud fight.

Let it dry! Yeah, patience is key (ugh).

Step 3: Create Your Sword Blade

Now we gotta make the blade part of our sword. Get those sticks you found earlier and break them into long pieces (but don’t cut your fingers off!). You want something that looks sort of like a sword but also kind of like…well…a stick.

Glue them together in whatever way works for you. Face it, no one’s gonna inspect your sword for authenticity unless they are weirdly obsessed with swords.

Step 4: Attach the Blade to the Flower Pot

Now this is where things get really exciting! Grab your glue again and attach that stick blade onto the top of the flower pot. You’ll want to use A LOT of glue because we want this bad boy to stay put! Just imagine someone walking by and seeing this amazing sword sticking out of dirt instead of flowers!

And then let it dry again (ugh again).

Step 5: Add A Decorative Handle Because Why Not?

You can’t have a sword without a handle, duh! Grab some more sticks or maybe even some rope if you’re feeling adventurous. Wrap it around where the flower pot meets the “blade” to give yourself a cool grip.

Pretend you’re training for battle as you do this because who doesn’t love pretending?

Step 6: Personalize That Bad Boy

Here’s where you get creative! You can write funny names on it with paint like “The Floral Fury” or “Daisy Destroyer.” Or just doodle all over it because art is subjective or whatever they say.

Just remember not to take yourself too seriously while doing this—you are literally making a flower pot sword!

Step 7: Show Off Your Creation!

Finally, once everything’s dried and looks incredible-ish…go outside and plant that beaut somewhere visible in your garden! Present it as if you’ve just claimed victory over an epic battle against weeds!

Wait for the compliments from neighbors who will totally think you’re either super creative or slightly insane—which is basically both!
