1. Mosaic pot
Mosaic art is popular, so why not implement it to make an exquisite mosaic pot? You will need a terracotta pot and reed shavings (easily available everywhere). Alternatively, you can use pot shards or broken pieces of tile. You will also need glue and spray paint.
First, paint the pot in your favorite color and let it dry.
In the second step, put the pot and glue chips or shards one by one.
After this, stick the chips on the other sides as well.
2. DIY lace pot
The pointed pot looks amazing. Store it indoors, on a terrace or balcony, or spruce up your patio.
This DIY idea is very easy to do: Choose a lace color and pattern according to the background color you are keeping it, take a pot and paint it with transparent glue and stick the lace neatly over it. Leave your lace pot for a while until it dries completely.
If you want to place it indoors, use colors like white, cream or other light colors. But if you’re going to keep it outdoors, mind the dust. Choose a lace color that doesn’t get dirty easily.
3. Barked Pot
Every single idea given here is worth a try, and these two are the most irresistible.

Collect small wood chips and bark, cover each piece with a little glue and stick them one by one into a new pot. Your unique pot is ready to use.

Paint this mixture on your pot and leave it. Do not let the pot dry out; spray a few drops of water fine, because the moss loves moisture, and within two days you will see the moss grow.
