Beautiful work, @LorenaDIYS! I love a bit of terracotta upcycling myself.
You should try adding some white grout for an attractive look and texture. The sandy particles are a really neat addition. Also, have you tried Crommelin Liquidstone? I know half the fun is mixing your own colour, but I found the finish quite convincing.
Here's a wall niche I made using white grout. I love the texture and rusty look. Obligatory shout out to Geneva Vanderzeil for the idea.
Many thanks for sharing.

Wow look how creative you are . Thank you for the recommendation.
I will have to look into it & might need you to explain it in more detail .
Hi @LorenaDIYS
Those are really attractive finishes on those vases. If you ever find yourself looking for other special effects you can apply the Dulux 300g Duramax Black Marble Effects Spray Paint. If you want to achieve that marble veined look this product is the one to use.

Wow , thank you for the recommendation. I will check it out 🙌🏻👌🏻
Hi @LorenaDIYS
I also recommend checking this featured project - D.I.Y. cement planter pots by @hannah. It's also a great option for you to apply your painting technique plus you can make custom-made vases.

Thanks for the suggestion 😊
Love your work. I could go nuts with a project like this but with plant pots ha-ha
Well done.
Cheers,
