Beautiful And Decorative Mosaic Garden Planters

By Linda Hill


For small gardens and patios, large pots are probably the best solution. If you are interested in this type of gardening, large number of small pots can be perfectly fine, but combining different plants in larger pots always looks more interesting. The explosion of colors will make your time spent in your garden, terrace or nicely decorated patio even more enjoyable.

Large containers can be in different sizes and shapes. Plastic ones aren't so decorative, and plain terracotta containers aren't really interesting. But, there is something you will certainly appreciate, beautiful mosaic garden planters. They will provide one perfect frame for your luxuriously blooming flowers, and give a special look to your outdoor space.

Mosaic is one really interesting and highly appealing decorative technique. Although some basic earthy and stone colors are usually used for it, there are no special rules for this, and any color combination will do. Simple patterns are effective as well, although they can be sophisticated and complicated as well. It depends on your personal taste, just give it a chance, you will just love it.

Some of the most popular motifs are those inspired by ancient arts. For example, ancient Greeks and Romans often used this particular technique for decorating their floors, walls or vases. The motif of leaves is especially interesting, and any of these lovely motifs may transform your old, unattractive planter into something you will be proud of.

Most people keep different ceramic tile leftovers in their garages. These leftovers may be used in designing lovely plant containers. Small pieces of ceramic tiles, shaped in small squares or in some other form, can usually be bought in garden centers. Small pieces of stone, glass or terracotta can also be successfully used for this particular purpose.

Really, if you keep some tiles in your garage, all you need is a package of ceramic tiles glue, a few old terracotta pots and a hammer, and your mosaic adventure may begin. Your boring old terracotta planters will never be the same again, and your outdoor space will be transformed into something to be proud of. You'll be surprised how little effort it really takes to do that. And how satisfying the results are.

Of course, the more elegant and easier solution is to buy beautiful plant containers that meet all your demands. You will find all types of designs, colors and shapes in your nearest garden supply store, and much better choice online. Some of these planters are really a work of art, and you will certainly find something beautiful to decorate your outdoor space.

Well, your containers don't have to be in earthy shades, of course. There are so many possibilities. You can bring spring and summer into your garden using vivid colors, why not. Bright color combinations are just perfect solutions for some outdoor spaces, and you can achieve beautiful effects using them. Not to mention that you will enjoy spending time there. Give your creativity a chance and enjoy transforming your outdoor space.
