Searching for ideas on how to display vintage pottery? I like to work the pieces into seasonal vignettes. Let me show you how!
This sweet little lamb once held a tiny plant and now is part of a Spring display! Isn’t this arrangement just precious? The baby lamb is a vintage planter my Mom received when I was born. Let me show you several examples of how to display vintage pottery in your seasonal displays.
How To Display Vintage Pottery

Can you guess what the wire form that I repurposed into a basket used to be?
If you guessed that it was the front of an old fan, you are correct! I just love old rusty wire objects! To make the centerpiece, I add two wreaths that I had taken apart and laid them around the perimeter of the basket. Then I added two small greenery picks that had white berries on them.
After the greenery was in place, I added the sheep and the lamb planter. I feathered in the little spindles. To take the photo, I set the whole thing on a square white bowl that I had turned upside down.
Let’s look at it Again!
When I am not using the lamb planter in this arrangement, I have it on a shelf in my office. I have several other pieces of vintage pottery in this bookcase.
Save This Pin For Later!
Another way I have used the planter is in this simple spring candle holder display.

How sweet! I have a little elephant planter that I think arrived when my brother was born. Missed you this week, friend!

The little planters are so cute, aren’t they? I missed you, too! I couldn’t get a strong enough connection for the Zoom. I kept getting bounced out. I hope I have better luck this week!
