March 13, 2010 (San Diego’s East County) – Want some spring decorations that really rock? These ornamental rock pots are ideal garden accessories to brighten up your home’s interiors. Use them to display artificial ivy, plants, flowers, or handy household items. They also make great gifts. Your only limit is your imagination!

 

Supplies you’ll need:
 

1 package of small stones
3 or 4 inch clay pots
Glue gun and glue sticks
“Tulip” gold or silver glitter for grout between stones
 

I found all of these items at Michael’s crafts store.
 

Instructions: Glue small stones to clay pots, beginning under the rim, being careful not to overhang on the bottom of the pot so it will sit level. Once stones are glued to the pot, apply the glitter between the stones and allow glitter to dry for several days. Then enjoy your beautiful pots!
