The herb corner in the garden or on the balcony creates a great atmosphere of well-being. The different pots are decoratedhere with transfer-Paper

How to design your herb pots with Transfer-Paper
First,prime your Terracotta pots or even the wooden box with a pretty chalky paint.

Select a transfer-Paper of your choice and cut out your motif as accurately as possible. The motif is printed mirror-inverted. The cut-out transfer motifs are coated with Transfer Medium with the motif facing upwards and placed on the rose pot with the moist side "down". Afterwards the pasted surface with the transfer paper is covered again with Transfer Medium.
Many beautiful transfer papers - many ideas! Then fill only with your favourite herbs!
With these tips & tricks the transfer design is successful
Let the transfer medium dry thoroughly on the pot. Only then carefully rub off the excess Paper with water and a soft sponge

If small areas of the filigree motifs have been damaged when the paper is "rubbed off", "small repairs" can be carried out with an edding Permanent marker .

As soon as all paper residues from transfer image have been removed, the entire pot is covered with Napkin varnish painted. This coating does not protect only the transferred transfer. The picture appears more saturated, and possible noticeable brush strokes of the transfer medium are no longer noticeable.

Extra tip: With Board paint or Blackboard film small inscription areas can be created on the herb pots.
