Plant sign from a piece of a pot – put broken pots to good use!

The pieces of a terracotta pot make excellent plant signs in no time. Bold signs are suitable for a personal garden.

Terracotta pots are prone to breaking. They crack easily, especially if you store them in a stack inside each other. Pots may also crack if stored outside in the winter.

The pieces of a broken pot make excellent plant signs when you write the name of the plant on them with a marker. All you need is a white permanent marker!

Plant tags are useful in the garden when you want to mark what you have sown or planted where. The signs look beautiful in a planter box or bench.

Plant signs can be shaped from clay or carved from a willow branch. It is much easier to make good use of materials found at home. Also try crafting a plant sign from a bottle cap.

A plant sign from a piece of a pot is funny and practical

Plant signs made from pieces of a pot look rough in plantings. Signs may be of different shapes and asymmetrical.

If you have a badly cracked terracotta pot that just barely holds together, you can easily donate it to plant signs. A cracked terracotta pot can shatter into pieces at any moment.

Break a cracked pot into pieces, for example, by dropping it on a large natural stone. That way, you get many pieces of the pot, which you can use as plant signs.

As a marker, you should use a permanent marker that does not spread in the rain. The white color stands out well from the brown surface of the terracotta.

Do like this:

• Break up a cracked terracotta pot by dropping it on a large natural stone in the yard. Collect the pieces and separate the usable pieces from the unusable pieces. Pieces with a sharp lower edge and a wide upper edge that can fit writing are best suited as plant signs.
• With a white permanent marker, write the name of the plant on the top edge of the sign. Let the text dry for a while.
• Ready! Insert the finished plant sign into the soil.
