Tea Party Diva - Life & Craft

Choose The Teacup

• Large? Small? Dainty? Vintage? Modern?
• This is a great use for a teacup with a chipped rim, as the flowers will cover it

Choose the Flowers

• Low and full growing rather than tall and spindly
• Where will the teacup pot plant be placed?
• Suitable for small container e.g African Violet
• Would a green or variegated leaf plant be more
  suitable or hardy?
• Favourite flowers or colours?
• Colors that complement the tea cup?
• Various hues of the one color? Mixed colours?
• When do they flower? How long do the flowers last

Shabby Chic Teacup Pot Plant - Potting

• Drill a hole in the bottom of the tea cup to allow the water to drain
• Add a few small pebbles in the bottom of the cup to help with this
• Add potting mix and flowering seedlings. Pat down the soil and water
• Leave the saucer under the cup as it makes a perfect draining tray
