POT PAINTING
As the name suggests, it is a hobby in which a person decorates clay pots and vases in various ways. It is a very interesting hobby as the results are often quite diverse (from what you expected!) and creative. One does not even need to learn it from any one nor are there any hard and fast rules to be followed. This hobby is as old as the art of pottery itself and nowadays it is gaining momentum and one can see various artisans selling painted pots on the roadsides. What is best about this hobby is that one need not learn it from anyone, as all it needs is creativity and, of course, some pots. Pot painting is not very expensive as most of the things needed such as clay pots, vases, paints, brushes, ribbon, tooth picks, macaroni, thread, stencils, plaster of Paris, glitter (or whatever else strikes your imagination) are mostly available at home. Some things, however, such as spray paints (which are a wee bit costly), clay pots and vases (you can even use the ones in your garden) and enamel paints and, if you need, dust (which comes in different colours such as silver, gold, bronze) etc.
