The Brick House's 'More [Neon DIY](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-pavilions)' post joins at home crafts with pottery. The [small planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-planters-1) are updated here with vibrant tones, instantly revamping kitchens and living room spaces without the need for much labor or investment.

Fluorescent yellow spray paint and standard masking tape is all that one needs for this project. The top half of pots, which can vary in size depending on what may be available in stores or around the house, are covered with the tape. The aerosol cans are then used to coat the [clay object](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd-project) from top to bottom.

After letting the coloring set to dry, The Brick House's curator peeled back the layers to reveal a bright, almost angular interior decor piece. The shades and shape of this DIY project can be tampered with.
