Clay pottery has its roots in the ancient history and even though today ceramics can be found in stores, making pots remains a beautiful craft. Depending on the effect you want to achieve some can be created on the pottery wheel, however I believe that a decorative piece is probably done best by hand. I totally love the monochromatic color scheme and a touch of speckle that makes the pieces very chic and their unique, beautiful shape makes them irresistible!

It sure makes for a great statement piece that reflects your personal style!

If you are obsessed with all things ceramic and enamelware, but don’t have any money to spend on this love, this isn’t an issue. DIY some pieces you like yourself! Take some plain candles and make them speckled for a cool and bright look. If you’re wondering if flammable spray paint and candles shouldn’t mix, it seems to be ok because the spray paint is only on the outside of the glass which doesn’t touch the flame whatsoever.

Speckles aren’t only about porcelain, they can be applied anywhere, and this project proves that. This is a cute speckled placemat, it’s very cute and won’t take much time to make. Before speckling the placemat keep in mind that splattering directly overhead instead of from an angle is important.  Splattering directly overhead also maintains the round shape of speckles as opposed to turning out streaky or oblong.
