6" Plant Shelfie Bookends Spiderwort glaze
Need more space for your plants? How about some truly functional planters? These are made from a 6” planter with attached saucer that’s thrown on the potter’s wheel. I then cut the planter in half, attach a slab back to each half, and voila- Bookends! A hook is added to the back of each before firing so you can also hang them on the wall. This is a good place to mention that these are not perfect. Sometimes one side is a little larger, or slightly different somehow. But, hey! It’s handmade, so imperfections remind us that it’s made by a real human (me).
Each half has a drainage hole and once potted, is heavy enough to hold your books up for the ultimate plant shelfie. Through testing and trial and error, I have made the backs of the bookends taller than the front lip of the pot. This should prevent water from spilling over the back of the pot and getting your books wet, however I recommend moving the pot for watering, just in case.
Creative Ideas for Use:
As bookends, (obviously :) )
On the Kitchen counter, planted with fresh herbs for cooking. They’ll hold up your cookbooks and contribute to your recipe.
Hang on the wall, but be sure to hang on a stud or use drywall anchors to support the weight. I recommend taking them off the wall to water.
The narrow shape is great for windowsills, and fireplace mantels too.
This pair has Spiderwort glaze on it.
Approximate dimensions: 5.5" wide on the back x 3.25” deep. 6.25" tall
No flaws- just on sale to make space!
