Painting a Rainbow: Making inspired by a book.

A few weeks ago, when reading the book "Planting a Rainbow" by Lois Ehlert, IttyBitty decided to plant her own rainbow. I drew out some pots and she colored them in the colors of the rainbow -- we had our plan.

The next weekend we bought some little pots -- one for each color of the rainbow -- and painted them as colorfully as possible.We just poured paint on the pots and let it drip down the sides. We were inspired by this post (http://www.dillydaliart.com/2012/04/rainbow-pour-painting-on-terra-cotta.html)




After two full days of drying, they were ready to plant. We went to the garden store and bought some flowers and seeds.
