Clay pots are a wonderful starting point for
a project. There are many ways to decorate them and they are versatile
in their end use, too. Clay pots can become longtime homes for
your favorite houseplants, or they can decorate your corner cupboard
to match the rest of your dining room decor. Whatever the end
use, clay pots are the perfect afternoon project or gift for a
friend.

line about 1/8" away.
