on 11/11/2009 DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK LISTED BY LA LA LANDS!

Although La La Land implies the link goes to an educational site, it really leads to a site called "Project Payday dot com", a notorious online "bait and switch" company. It has a bad online reputation for its trustworthiness, and vendor reliability, and Privacy(see Web of Trust http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/projectpayday.com)not to mention testimony from many people who have been "taken" by this company, DYNADOT, LLC.

on 11/11/2009 Well! I think It'd be much better to show out illustration of some samples of broken things decorated with ceramic, just to help make the image close.

on 11/22/2005 I use a rubber mallet instead of a hammer when I am breaking up my ceramics or old plates. That way, if the pieces are painted, the paint doesn't chip off and the pieces are much more manageable.

on 11/22/2005 I often keep my eyes open at thrift stores for ceramics in neat colors and patterns. Even if something is old and chipped, you can break it up and use it in ceramic art and/or as filler if you run out of pieces for another piece of art.

on 11/22/2005 I like to spread colorful small objects like seashells, marbles, colored rocks and yes, even broken ceramics in my flowerbeds. I spread them around to add color and sparkle to the garden.
