Ceramic tiles can make beautiful trivets that are also heat-resistant and durable. Trivets can be made from plain ceramic tiles, which can be decorated with paint or decoupage, or from tiles that already feature a pattern or design to your liking. By sealing the tile, and gluing felt onto the back of it, you will have a useful piece of artwork. When you are not using the trivet to hold hot pots and pans, display it in your kitchen for everyone to see.
Kitchenware is often made of ceramic because of its durability and heat resistance. You can create your own ceramic kitchenware art. Buy plain ceramic plates, cups, bowls, tea cups or a tea pot, or make them yourself. Design them with ceramic paint and then seal them so that the paint will not come off.
Vases are another item that are commonly made of ceramic. Flower and plant vases can be large or small, and can be incorporated into the decor of a room. Buy or make a plain ceramic vase in any shape and size that you like. Paint or decoupage a design that you like on the vase. If the base is large, think about making it a mostly neutral color that it does not become an eye sore and remember that you will likely have a beautiful plant in it. If you plan to put flowers in the vase, keep its design plain so it does not detract from the blooms.
