Using Pottery to Brighten and Uplift your Space

Using pottery is a simple and easy way to spice up your home décor and add personality to your indoor and outdoor spaces. Here at Luis’ Nursery we have a wide selection of pottery varying in sizes, styles, colors. These are perfect for indoor or outdoor, and we bring in new inventory regularly. How can you use pottery to brighten and uplift your space?

1. Add plants to your pottery –

Adding plants to your pottery is a fun way to add interest to your décor. Plain terra cotta can stay at grandma’s house! Inject color into your space by adding an interesting piece of pottery with your houseplants inside! Pick a pot that will complement the plant you choose and allow it the space it needs to grow properly. Make sure that you are using pottery that allows for proper drainage or use a protective material to prevent damage to the surface it is placed on. We have a variety of plants and we would love to help you pick the best ones for your pieces.

2. Organize your pottery by color-

Grouping some beautiful and diverse pottery pieces together in the same shade can create a clean and modern aesthetic and feel like a collection. Placing them in a spot with a clean, crisp background can turn the pottery into your own art display.

3. Place them with care –

Arranging your pottery artfully will help you to make a style statement. Grouping them tightly and purposefully on a surface can create a curated look. You can mix them up by colors, shapes and height to create dimension. Tall pottery can be used in the background and medium pieces build support with the smallest pieces in the gaps.

4. Work with your style –

We all have our own personal style, and wonderfully pottery comes in a variety of styles to suit your personal taste. What style are you? Contemporary and nontraditional? Eclectic? Modern? Rustic? Vintage? Pick out pottery items that suit your needs and style and this will help you keep your space from feeling sterile and impersonal.

5. Brighten a friend’s or neighbors’ space –

A beautiful piece of pottery with a healthy living plant can bring light and love to any friend or neighbor. During the pandemic we’ve all learned that we are in this together and it’s important to take moments to show love and support. Selecting a piece of pottery that will make someone else smile and adding in a fresh bouquet or living plant is a great way to share love this month.
