3. Prep your pictures
Photos may not stick well to glazed and terracotta pots, but you can solve this problem by spraying the backs of your pictures with a photo-safe spray adhesive.
4. Apply your photos
Decoupage the pictures you have selected onto the flower pot. Once the decoupage is dry, brush on a layer of sealant.
