How to Care for Your Handmade Ceramic Planters: A Complete Guide

Handmade ceramic stoneware planters are not just decorative elements but long-term investments in your home and garden. Harla’s handcrafted planters are durable and timeless, but with proper care, they can last a lifetime while keeping your plants healthy and thriving.

Essential Care Tips for Handmade Ceramic Planters

  1. Cleaning & Maintenance

    • Gently wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris.

    • Use mild soap and warm water for deep cleaning; harsh chemicals does not damage the glaze, but refrain from using them unless there are stains that are difficult to clean.

  2. Proper Drainage for Plant Health

    • Ensure that your planter has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.

    • If using a planter without drainage holes, add a layer of pebbles at the bottom before adding soil to improve water circulation.

  3. Preventing Cracks & Chips

    • Unlike other Ceramic pots, sudden temperature changes, as extreme heat or cold does not weaken Harla Planters, so don't worry about it.

    • Handle your Harla ceramic stoneware planters with care, especially when moving them.

  4. Indoor & Outdoor Use Guidelines

    • For indoor use: Place a saucer beneath the planter to protect furniture from moisture.

    • For outdoor use: Keeping Harla planters in open areas under direct sunlight does not affect the looks or fade away the glaze of the planter. Please feel confident to place them anywhere.

  5. Seasonal Care for Longevity

    • In humid environments, occasionally wipe the base to prevent mold buildup.

Why Handmade Planters Need Special Care

Unlike mass-produced ceramics, Harla’s handcrafted planters are made with natural materials and artisanal techniques, making them more delicate yet exceptionally strong when maintained properly. Their unique textures and finishes deserve attention and care to preserve their beauty.
