Make Your Own Beautiful Mosaic Garden Planters

By Peter Anderson


Although it still seems like the winter will never end, spring is already in front of the door. It is time for the first plans of gardening. Take advantage of these last cold days in the best possible way so that you can start planting flowers in the early days of spring.

Terracotta pots can become something really special if you transform them into interesting and attractive mosaic garden planters. They will look amazingly good in any garden, but also on any terrace, in case you don't have a garden. Planted in such pot, every plant will look even more attractive.

You will find such beautiful planters in one of the nearby specialized stores. In any case, online stores offer a rich selection of pots of different sizes and shapes, so it is already time to finish your order. Of course, if you have artistic tendencies, you can make them by yourself.

Small pieces of ceramic tiles are mostly used for pot decorating. You will probably find such packages in different colors in any specialized store. Of course, you could also use any tile leftovers you might have in your garage. You could also try to buy separate tiles in any specialized store, and simply break them up in small pieces, using hammer, for example.

You could also use any other hard material for this purpose, such as glass, gravel, small pieces of marble, broken mirror or maybe small shells. Beads and similar small items will also do. Buy ceramic tiles glue and give your imagination a chance.

If you do not have a specific idea, visit one of the specialized stores first, or simply browse the web. You will surely find something that you will like and inspire you to create your own artwork. Choose your favorite colors and motifs and start working. If you have children, they will certainly just love to participate in this activity.

It is best to first formulate a motif and transfer the idea to the paper. It can be a simple geometric motif, a motif inspired by ancient Egypt, or some other ancient culture, or even some artwork, or simply with some flower, such as sunflowers. Whatever you like and what you're looking for is a perfectly good choice.

Even if you don't have ceramic or terracotta pots to work on, they are really affordable as well as all other material you will need for this job. This small investment may result in something you will cherish forever. You could also make some great gifts for your friends later on, when you prove your creativity. In any case, you'll simply enjoy the process.

Of course, not all people have enough time and creativity for this venture. However, this does not mean that you can not decorate your terrace with these beautiful flower pots. Find a specialized store and pick the pots for plants that match your taste. Plant in these flower pots some beautiful plants that will enrich your living space with their flowers.
