Description
My Wall Planters for Air Plants are perfect for displaying your Tillandsia in a modern and contemporary style. I make each piece individually so they are one-of-a-kind by using the impression from a real leaf. I glaze them with an attractive rustic mid green glaze with ‘toasted’ edges and veins. The price does not include the air plant as they are too delicate to post, but can be easily purchased at garden centres. They also look amazing simply as wall art!
Making Process
I make my Wall Planters for Air Plants by pressing a real leaf into clay, making an impression. Then I cut around the shape and fold it into a sculptural form. Finally, I add flat sections to the back with a recess gap for attaching the planter to a wall. Air Plants can then be nestled into the open form allowing air to circulate and easy spray watering. My Wall Planters for Air Plants also form wonderful shadows when lit and add a contemporary curiosity to any interior space.
I use stoneware clay fired to 1260 degrees, making each planter durable and robust.

Care
Please wipe your planter clean with soapy water if necessary.
Air Plant Care
When you purcahse your own air plant, they like to be housed in an airy light room. They absorb moisture from the air but will need an extra spray with water (preferably filtered or rain water) twice a week in temperate climates. During summer they may require spraying every day dependant on the temperature.
