Vintage heritage 4 master crafts on how to make ceramic pots


Age decorates not only expensive wines but also ceramic pots. a pot with traces of noble antiquity is a thematic and stylish decorative element that carries a special charm. Almost every experienced gardener and plant lover have a cherished old ceramic pot. but if you don't, you don't have to wait years. We have some tips and tricks to help speed up the time for a new pot - and it's not all quantum physics.

First, let's get the ceramic pots right. RunSun Garden has a wide selection of pots with a variety of effects - from bronze to faux archaeological antiques. But

As a base for aging, you can pick items from RunSun Garden's indoor planter collection, small ceramic pots from RunSun Design, or another variation of a metal mesh planter. They all already look like they've been through a lifetime - but there's no limit to vintage perfection!".


1. Yogurt color

If you can find plain yogurt in your fridge (even stale or expired yogurt will do), it can help you create a very natural-looking coppery green effect. The choice of yogurt is not critical, but the high-fat versions are usually thicker and therefore less likely to drip off the walls of the cache.

You will need.

a. Yogurt without additives.

b. A brush for applying the shaving foam.


How to make:

1. Stir in the yogurt.

2. Dip the brush into it.

3. Apply the yogurt to the walls of the pan.

4. Repeat until all or part of the item is covered.

5. Hide the pot in a dark place. 6.

6. Take it out again after about a month.

If you apply yogurt to a dry pan, the effect will be more vivid. To get a more natural and delicate copper green appearance, soak the pot in water for 15 minutes before handling.


2. Buttermilk and moss.

Another fermented dairy product that will be an ally to the noble cause of decorative aging. Buttermilk is a fermentation by-product of dairy production. It contains large amounts of lactic acid bacteria, which are useful not only for people but also for moss - it grows on it like yeast.

So, all you need to do is apply a mixture of moss and buttermilk to a vintage planter to get a moss-covered effect.

You will need.

a. Moss.

b. Buttermilk.

c. A sponge brush.


How to make:

1. Collect some wild moss.

2. Clean the soil, debris, pieces of bark, and twigs.

3. Use your hands to press the moss into fine fibers.

4. Pour the casein milk into a bowl, add the chopped moss, and stir.

5. Use a brush to apply the mixture to the walls of the planter. 6.

6. Place in a dark place until you get the desired look.

The moss serves to hold the liquid buttermilk in a place where you want the aging texture to be. If the moss clumps on the wall become too coarse, you can use a metal bristle brush to clean the surface up a bit. Remember, nature does not strive for perfect symmetry - apply the compound unevenly.


3. Clay soil

Want your ceramic pots to look like they were found on an archaeological dig? Use moist soil with a high clay content - it combines best with terracotta.


You will need.

a. clay soil.

b. A flexible wire brush or small metal brush.


How to make:

1. Use your hands to rub the soil into the surface of the pot.

2. If it is not sticky, moisten it with a small amount of water.

3. Leave the pot in a dark place for at least a month until the soil solidifies. 4.

4. After that, brush the pot with a brush to make an irregular textured surface.


4. Water and sunlight

Sometimes, the simplest methods bring cool results. Sunlight, air, and water are our best friends and natural decorations. You can use them to give your terra cotta the effect of an archaeological find found underwater.

You will need.

a. An outdoor bathtub or a deep container.

b. Water.

c. Sunlight.


How to make:

1. Soak the tub in a container of water - completely or as much as you want to decorate it.

2. Place the container in the sunniest part of the garden plot.

3. Replenish the water level as it evaporates.

Leave it in the tank until algae begin to grow on the surface.


Each method will produce pristine results, but there are some general tips as follows:

1. To achieve a realistic appearance, you can change the thickness of the layer and the direction of application of the material.

2. Do not place the pots on top of each other while the compounds are acting.

3. Occasionally spray them with water or place them in places where rain may drip - this will give the product a unique appearance.

4. Pots with food coating will have a strong odor for several days after applying the ingredients - keep them away from living areas.

5. The longer the pots are left on, the more pronounced the effect will be, so it's up to you to decide when to say "stop". After rinsing off the formula, the surface will continue to "age" in use for some time.

6. Try combining various methods to form a unique signature piece.

There is still a problem: what to do if you are not prepared to wait and want to get the desired results as soon as possible?

Then you will find wonderful vintage-style planters from world brands in the RunSun Garden online store!
