How to Draw Hanging Plants - Draw Cartoon Style!

I love drawing cute things in general.

Hanging plants are absolutely adorable – you can draw them in notebooks, on sticky notes and on almost any cute journal.

It really is very aesthetic and pleasing.

This is a great drawing idea for kids.

I’ve already covered a post on drawing easy succulents like cacti and more.

I currently use an iPad Pro and an Apple Pencil to create my digital art.

But you can use any tool – a pen and paper or colored pencils or Copic markers or Photoshop because the drawing method remains the same.

How to draw Hanging Plants – step-by-step tutorial

The thing with drawing plants is, that you’ll never run out of variety.

You can mix and match pots, hanging threads, and plants and get a whole new variation every time!

So, I’ll start by drawing the rim of the pot.

Next, we’ll draw the rest of the pot.

Next, we need to draw a small point above the pot.

This is the point from where the hanging plant will hang.

Draw a small point above the pot to draw the hanging plant

Now, we’ll draw 3 lines which will be the lines of string from the point to the pot. You can use a ruler for this if you’re drawing it physically.

Next, color the pot.

You can choose any color you want. I’m going to color the pot purple and add some cute white dots to the potted plant.

Remember, you can draw any type of pot – the possibilities are endless.

Here are a few pots you can draw when drawing hanging plants:

Remember you can draw a variety of pots.

Now, it’s time to draw the hanging plant.

Again, you can draw any type of plant inside your pot.

Draw a plant to complete the hanging plant.

One thing to remember is when you’re drawing your plant, vary the color of the leaves.

Use 2-3 shades of green when drawing your plant – this way your hanging plant will look more authentic and real.

You can also draw a variety of plants to create a new hanging plant each time.

Let me show you one more example:

If you are interested in drawing in a kawaii style and then selling clipart or merchandise on Etsy, check out this course!

My old bud Ilaria (we’ve been friends on Instagram back when I had Instagram) created this course! I’ve watched her grow from 0 followers, and I’m so, so proud of her!

And believe it or not, there is not 1 single good online course about learning how to draw kawaii art and then making physical stickers on the internet. I’ve been looking for a course like this for a long, long time.

And it’s finally here!!!

You can create your own stickers and print them and sell them on Etsy or any space! She goes into detail about how to draw the characters.

This is by far one of the best courses I’ve taken that is so cute and so educational.

The course is in English, and it’s amazing!

What do you need?

A sketchbook, Photoshop, and a graphic tablet so that you can draw the kawaii characters. If you want to make stickers, you’ll need a printer and sticker sheets.

Even if you don’t want to make stickers and just draw kawaii characters, this course is perfect!

Check it out here!

And if you are really keen on improving your drawings or you want to create cute kawaii animals and kawaii people, check out this second course by Sara.

Sara teaches you how to draw anything in a nice kawaii style. I really love these kinds of courses because they’re so easy to learn and it’s very easy to get clients because this is a really relatable drawing style.

It is in Italian but it comes with subtitles and it’s really easy to follow.
