Self made pots
I just have to share it with you. My first attamps to make pots for orchids. It's earthenware btw.
I hope you like it. I still have a lot to learn. The glaze didn't come out the way I wanted.

I like them! Are there some holes in the bottom? Is the "brilliant paint" inside too?

Wow, I love seeing self made pots. These are wonderful, how did you make them? In a kiln or an oven?

Looks similar to the fancy ones sold for big bucks that the neofinetia people use! Always see them at shows and bet you could make some good $ should you wish to sell! Just sayin'!

Really pretty. I have been thinking of taking a pottery class to make orchid pots for myself. Now you are making me think even harder about it.

Thank you for your compliments. It's really nice to hear.
@Mandy, I bake them in a kiln.
@sbrofio, They are glazed on the inside so the roots will not attach themselves.
