Materials

- Waverly Chalk Paint Ocean and Pool or your favorite colors
- nautical cotton rope
Instructions
- Paint the inside of the saucer and the outside rim of each saucer. Paint one with Ocean and one with Pool or use your favorite colors. Let the first coat dry, then touch up any thin areas for solid, even color.
- Once the paint is completely dry, apply a thin line of hot glue along the inner rim of one saucer. Immediately lay the end of the rope on the glue and pressing around the rim. Continue adding glue and pressing the rope, working inward in a spiral, until the entire center of the saucer is covered.
- Using the scissors to trim the end flush for a neat finish. Remove any excess glue.
Notes
If you use acrylic paint you may need more coats to completely cover over the terra cotta color.
