Going to Pot



g
I recently acquired many terra cotta pots from a neighbor who had seen my mosaic pots recently. When I got this great number of pots, I thought of making " Garden Totems" all covered in shards that will reflect light. They will be suitable for outdoor use.



Here are some of the pots glued head to head, then stacked.
With this number of pots, I should be able to make several totems.

Most of the pots are about 6" across the top.





There are a couple of different shapes.








Here the first shards are attached to the pots with mortar.









The totem starting out.








Another view. I worked about 3 hours on the totem today.
The mosaics hanging on the wall are made of broken ceramic shards.
