Gathering the Materials

You will need: a large pot/ a medium pot/ a large pot tray/ spray paint/ soil/ trowel/ plants or flowers. Note: The size of the pots may vary. The important thing is that the bottom of the medium pot is small enough to leave approximately 6” of soil all around. The top of the medium pot should fit into the bottom of the tray allowing the tray to overhang by about 2 inches.
