Plant Stand Ceramic Ideas: Simple Ways to Decorate Home
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

So, I was looking to spice up my indoor garden, and I thought, why not try making my own plant stand? I decided to go with a ceramic one because I love the look of it and I wanted to try something different. Let me tell you, it was quite the adventure!

First, I gathered all the materials. I already had some clay at home from a previous pottery project, so that was a good start. I also needed a few tools like a rolling pin, a knife, and some water. Oh, and of course, I needed something to shape the clay on, so I just used a flat piece of wood.

Next, I started working on the clay. I rolled it out like a big pizza dough, making sure it was even and not too thin. Then, I cut out three circles for the legs of the stand. I wanted them to be sturdy, so I made sure they were thick enough. For the top part, where the plant would sit, I made a larger circle and flattened it out.

  • Roll out the clay evenly.
  • Cut out three circles for the legs.
  • Make a larger circle for the top and flatten it.

This is where it got tricky. I had to attach the legs to the top part. I scored the edges of each piece with my knife and added some water to help them stick together. It was like building with mud, but a bit more delicate. I pressed them together gently but firmly, hoping they would stay put. They didn’t initially, and fell over a few times, so I had to go back and repeat the process with a little more water and more scoring.

Once everything was assembled, I left it to dry. This took a while, like a whole day. I kept checking on it, making sure it was drying evenly. I also wanted to smooth out some rough edges, so I used a damp sponge to do that. I kept checking on it, making sure it was drying evenly.

After it was completely dry, it was time to bake it. I don’t have a kiln at home, but I heard you can use your oven. So, I placed the stand in the oven at a low temperature and baked it for a couple of hours. I checked on it frequently, cause I was so nervous about burning it. It felt like it would never be done, but finally, it was ready!

The final step was painting it. I decided to go with a simple white glaze to give it a clean look. I applied a few coats, letting each one dry before adding the next. And just like that, my ceramic plant stand was finished! I have to say, it felt good to make something with my own hands. I put the plant in it, and it immediately made my space feel much more alive.

It’s not perfect, but I’m proud of it. It’s a little wobbly, and the glaze isn’t perfectly smooth, but it’s mine. And now, every time I look at my plant, I’m reminded of the fun (and sometimes frustrating) process of making its stand. If you want to try your hand at pottery or just get creative, I highly recommend it!
