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.

Good specialized stores in your neighborhood probably have such items in their offer. If not, search the web for them. They come in all shapes and sizes, and any plant will look even better in such appealing pot. You should order your favorites timely, or you could make some 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.

Once you find the right motif, maybe in some book or a museum, transfer your idea to the paper first. Some people simply start gluing pieces together, and some find it more productive to have it done on the paper. It's up to you. If you still don't know where to start, find your inspiration in nature around you. There is always something that will inspire you.

A simple terracotta flower pot may become a special thing that will always rejoice you in the years to come. Making some decorative object with your own hands creates a special feeling, and gives that item a special value. Discover the artist in yourself and turn your garden or terrace into a special place. It takes only some time and will, and just a little bit of money, and the results are really amazing.

Well, you might say you simply don't have enough time for this. On the other hand, this doesn't mean that you cannot have such lovely mosaic pots on your terrace. There are so many specialized stores out there, that anyone will find something special. Find some time and check the offer. You won't be sorry.
