Hello! I hope you all are enjoying the end of your summer.
Today I want to share with you one of my favorite items to decorate my home with. Have you ever heard of a cloche? It’s a French word meaning “bell” and these amazing pieces were originally used to cover outdoor plants in the cold weather. Today you see them used more inside to cover plants or to display a fun arrangement underneath.
In a store these pieces can be pretty pricey, hard to find, and in my opinion mostly boring. I’ve found that I can make my own using items found in a thrift store, hardware store, and the dollar store.
Here’s an assortment I’m using today. Juice glass, vase, brass lamp pieces, votive candle holder just to name a few.
I spray painted some of the brass pieces.
I then start experimenting with a few different pieces.
Using E-6000 adhesive I glued these pieces
into this:
These pieces
turned into this piece:
I like using a plate or pedestal stand underneath the cloche.
Here’s another one that started out with these pieces:
And ended up looking like this:
I love how easy and inexpensive these are and each one is so unique.
Wouldn’t these make great gifts, too.
I hope these give you some ideas to add a little extra oomph to your decor.
I am confident that your ideas will provide me with significant satisfaction due to their compelling quality. I often hear comments from folks who express dissatisfaction with a particular attribute that may be enhanced by reducing the importance placed on attentiveness. I have deliberately opted to engage in the reading activity, and I am certain in my choice.
Thank you for providing such useful information. I’ve been having trouble coming up with many questions about this topic. I’ll stick with you!
This is such a creative and budget-friendly idea! I love how you repurposed thrifted items to make unique cloches. They add such a charming touch to home decor, and I agree—they’d make wonderful gifts too! Thanks for sharing this DIY inspiration! WalmartOne

This DIY tutorial is amazing! I’ve always wanted a French cloche, but they’re so expensive in stores. This method is both budget-friendly and unique. I’m going to make a few this weekend! Thanks for sharing! By the way, try drive mad for wild stunt-driving fun with wacky physics!
Looks interesting! But how well does E-6000 glue work on glass? Does it leave marks? Any other glue recommendations? I’m worried it won’t look good. ragdoll archers
I also have experience with upcycling, and this idea is brilliant! You can combine different shaped glass items to create more styles. I’ll have a new goal next time I visit a thrift store! doodle baseball
Very practical tutorial! Easy to find materials, simple steps, beautiful results. Great for gifts. I’ve already added this project to my DIY list! Drift Boss
My plants finally have a ‘mansion’ to live in! No more envying others’ exquisite decor. Hope mine doesn’t turn into a ‘crooked-neck’ cloche, haha! If you’re struggling with naming, why not try using Wheel of Names?
