Personalised Pottery
Adding that personal touch to pottery is what makes it so much more special. A baby footprint or handprint. Signature plates for weddings. Anniversary gifts that are actually based upon your anniversary year.
Examples of personalised pottery
Round plates, heart shaped plates and square plates are just a few of the many ideas for wedding and anniversary gifts. Some suppliers offer standard designs as well as bespoke designs to suit a range of budgets. It's nice to have a cup or mug with a special design just for your loved one to show them just how special they are to you.
Celebrate special occasions
Handpainted personalised pottery is unique. This makes it all the more special. Signing plates really do take this to the next level. A supplier sends you a plates and some signing pens. Then your guests get to signs the plates. Bakin the plates seals the signatures. This way your guests get to add to the experience.
Baby footprints
We all want to remember how small our children were when they were babies. Footprint tiles are ideal for doing just that. Baby footprints and handprints help create special memories of that fantastic day. They are fantastic for new baby and christenings.
Commissioning designs
Many suppliers offer their own standard designs. But wouldn't it be nice to be able to design your own personalised pottery. This lets you get even more involved and makes the gifts more unique. Remember, it's the thought that counts when giving a gift.

Does anyone know if Turkish handpainted Iznik tiles are durable enough for outdoor fountains (in the water)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
I can't really answer your question for sure (just a layman's guess) - but I am keen to use Iznik tiles myself in a similar way.
I guess that you would have to know whether the tiles had been fired after painting, and also whether they have been sealed with a layer of varnish?
Genuine Iznik tiles are quite expensive, as I'm sure you'll know! What about trying to get some replicas that would have been mass produced, and not so much of a risk?
I don't know where you're based, but I'd be interested to know where you got your tiles? I am in the UK and have not found any at a reasonable price, so I am going to buy some in Turkey on my next trip.
If you are unsure about whether the tiles will be ok, you could try buying a ready made fountain. I have found some Morroccan fountains that I like. Not authentically Turkish or Iznik, but depends on whether it must be Iznik or not?

I am tempted by these!
