Make Pots for Container Gardens!

One of the things I love is picking fresh veggies and herbs and using them on the spot. One thing I have been getting more and more intrigued with is the thought of creating a container garden, in which the containers are just as important as the plants.

I've also used run across another cool idea for container gardening.... Guide Patti Wigington (Paganism and Wicca) has a great article on creating an elemental garden. I'm not a pagan or Wiccan, but I love the thought of creating a garden especially for nurturing the spirit with calmness and beauty. Even more, I love the thought of creating pottery containers and mini-garden accessories that would be personal to me and my own approach to life, spiritually and physically.

Have you done anything similar? Do you make pots for plants, container gardens, or for spiritual refuges? Please, share here in a comment or share comments and pictures on the Pottery Forum!
