Innovations for spring 2023 — Easter decorations made of dibond

As the winter months slowly fade into oblivion, we begin to look for the first signs of spring. We track the first spring flowers, buds on trees and singing birds — cities finally take on more colors! So it’s the perfect time to prepare for the arrival of Easter and decorate the city with beautiful Easter elements. This year, new decorations made of dibond appeared on the market, the material that stands out from others with its durability. What are its main features? Check below!

Dibond — what is it?

Dibond is a modern composite material that consists of several aluminum layers. These layers are connected by a polyethylene core, which makes dibond durable and lightweight. Therefore, it can be used in the production of various products. Another advantage of this material is its durability, which is why it can be used outdoors. Resistant to weather conditions, dibond has already been appreciated by architects, engineers and decorators, who take advantage of it to create various arrangements in public spaces. All these assets make dibond a great alternative to PVC boards. What’s more, the polyethylene used for the production of dibond comes from recycling, which is certainly a great advantage nowadays.

Decorations made of dibond are also light and easy to transport. They can be covered with different colors, and their surface can also have a different structure. Thanks to this, dibond has a wide range of applications and can be modified to meet the needs of each client.

Dibond board — application

Dibond is primarily used for the production of various public architecture elements — these can be e.g., coffers, advertising stands or shop signs. The dibond board works great in these conditions, because it retains its durability for a long time and, if the board is properly covered with color, it will not fade over time. Various companies have decided to change the existing PVC advertising boards to more modern boards, made of dibond. First of all, this is motivated by durability, and thus, a lot of savings, because decorations do not have to be changed every season. Dibond elements will work well for years. What’s more, the dibond board can be cut with various patterns or inscriptions that will perfectly emphasize the character of any place or special occasion.

Easter decorations 2023 made of dibond

Dibond Easter decorations may become a new trend this season. Eggs made of this material will be resistant to any weather conditions and will perfectly color the urban space. They will also work well as advertisements in hotels or restaurants.

In Terra Easter’s offer, you will find various patterns of 2D and 3D eggs — what’s the difference? 2D eggs are flat, so they can be used in different ways. Depending on your preferences, you can decorate a selected wall with them or mount them on a stand. 3D decorations take up a bit more space, so it is worth planning in advance where we are going to place them. Such eggs will attract the attention of passers-by and will color the public space. What’s more, when ordering such an egg, you can choose a personalized printout — this way you can easily get a beautiful decoration that will also become a showcase of your company, hotel, or restaurant. Easter wishes printed on the surface of the egg will pleasantly surprise all customers, and as we know, their satisfaction is the most important thing!

How to activate the local community? Painting Easter eggs by city dwellers as a joint event

Building a local community that will spend time together and take care of urban space can be a very difficult task. The pandemic circumstances had a huge impact on the increasing distance in relations between neighbors, which are only now beginning to recover. However, more and more cities are starting to propose interesting ideas for activating the local community. Working together can have a positive impact on all residents — it’s a good opportunity to get to know each other better, exchange ideas or just have a nice time.

It turns out that painting Easter eggs together can be a great idea for a local project. Such eggs can be used to decorate the city. In previous years, this idea was already implemented by e.g., Karpacz, Racibórz or Skała. So, how to organize such an action?



Ideas for painting Easter eggs together in your city

Spring brings higher temperatures, which is a great opportunity to finally spend some time outdoors. Organizing a local action of painting Easter eggs with such a pleasant aura will surely delight the residents! After long winter months, you can finally go back to walking and playing in the park. Painting Easter eggs together can be the perfect start to the spring season, which is full of various outdoor activities.

It turns out that there are quite a lot of ideas for preparing XXL Easter eggs. Thanks to the fact that many cities have already carried out such projects, we can take a closer look at them and be inspired by their actions. Importantly, every year more and more cities join this action, thanks to which many markets were decorated with beautiful, hand-painted decorations. Admiring them is a pleasure for both passers-by and people who took part in the project!

Easter eggs as an element of the city game — Karpacz

A great idea was implemented in Karpacz — colorful Easter eggs were used as an element of the town game. At the beginning, white, fiberglass, plain eggs from the Terra Easter collection arrived in the city. Then they were handed over to local artists so that they could decorate them according to their own ideas. The project involved, among others, Teresa Kępowicz, Renata Jaryczewska, Leszek Legut and Beata Makutynowicz. Thanks to so much involvement, about 20 such unique Easter eggs have already been created. In addition to local artists, Easter eggs were also decorated by children; and it’s all thanks to art workshops at “Culture Station”. Ready Easter eggs have been placed in various areas of the town — they have not been accumulated in one place on purpose, so that passers-by can look for them and enjoy the next prey during family walks.

The motto of this action was: “Hey seeker, spend this Easter in Karpacz!”. As a result, the town was eagerly visited by tourists who could try their hand at a family outdoor game. Riddles created by the Mountain Spirit were attached to each of the Easter eggs. Such a thematic walk around the area was an entertaining experience for both residents of Karpacz and tourists from all over the country!

Painting Easter eggs with children — Bad Wimpfen

Another extraordinary undertaking is choosing white XXL eggs by the local government, which will be handed over to various institutions so that school children can decorate them together according to their own ideas. It’s obvious that children are very creative — so it’s worth giving them a chance to express themselves in this way! The German town of Bad Wimpfen followed in these footsteps and donated a white egg to a local kindergarten. The youngest children took part in painting an Easter egg by imprinting their hands on the surface of the egg. You can see the effect below.

Easter eggs painted by local artists — Brzesko, Kórnik

Some towns also came up with the idea of placing Easter eggs on the market square or promenade, where all residents can participate in the creation of Easter art works. Local activity organized in this way will surely be remembered by all participants, and will also give a lot of publicity to the commune. If your town is full of local artists, it is worth using their potential and inviting them to cooperate! Such actions were organized by Brzesko and Kórnik, the effects of which you can see in the photo below. Such unique Easter eggs emphasize the artistic atmosphere of the town, and will also provide works of art that the commune will be able to boast about for many years.

Urban decorations and functionality – how to make decorations in urban space practical?

All city residents want to live comfortably in their space, therefore, it is very important to take care of the landscape elements. We pay attention not only to places for waste segregation, public benches or playgrounds, but also to quite specific components of urban life. Of course, this applies to urban decorations that should please the eye of passers-by and build a coherent image of the city. After all, it is a natural human need to surround oneself with aesthetic objects. As the awareness of this subject is increasing among city authorities and local communities, one can notice more and more interestingly developed urban spaces. We admire various art installations, exhibitions of local artists and commemorative plaques. At such moments, however, one question arises: could urban decorations also perform practical functions?



Yellow urban pots

Modern street furniture

One of the most interesting ideas in contemporary design is creating useful street furniture. Such facilities not only meet the tangible need of the residents, which is integration and joint recreation in urban space, but also add an artistic flair to every place. For this reason, more and more cities decide to set up designer, modern public benches or flower containers to combine two goals in one:  the comfort of residents and the revival of public space.

People, who want to enliven their surroundings with bright colors, will certainly be interested in colorful, metal city benches. It is definitely a more budget option than art installations, as it will work in any space. Colorful benches attract not only the eyes of tourists and residents, but also themselves – passers-by will be much more willing to rest on a designer bench, which originally fits into the urban space. Importantly, such benches are made of various metals, making them much more durable. It is also impossible to ignore their advantages during bad weather; after the rain, it is enough to wipe their handrails with a tissue, and not, as in the case of traditional wooden benches, to wait for many hours for their drying.

Modern public bench with a flower pot

Public benches in non-standard, geometric shapes will work in the same way. Furniture with an artistic touch will add a designer character to each district—it will refresh the historic, traditional promenades, and will also match the fronts of modern hotels. In these cases, street furniture in gray or graphite colors will be a good choice.

How to take advantage of street furniture in a creative way?

A very original way to arrange street furniture is to use a construction that will allow to combine a bench with a flower pot. Thanks to this, it will be possible to launch greenery into the center of every city. What’s more, passers-by will be delighted with a bit of shade in which they can rest during hot days. A designer example of combining urban greenery with a public bench is the street furniture set, called QUINTOS, which goes together with GIANTO. This modular set allows you to freely integrate several large pots with wavy, modern benches. The unique advantage of this collection will be the ability to adjust the row of benches, colors of pots and their sizes to your individual idea.

Those who miss colors in urban space may like the idea of vibrant, round ZEBRA benches, which go with GIANTO pots. This uncommon project has already gathered a lot of fans, which can be admired, for example, in Łabiszyn (check the photo below).

Colorful urban bench with a flower pot

Another multi-functional solution is the combination of flower pots with bicycle racks. Such a decoration of a car park or promenade may encourage more people to use ecological means of transport, and at the same time, it will provide greenery to the public space. Placing such facilities between a busy street and a pavement will also ensure the safety of passers-by, which is a great advantage, especially in larger cities. Some also decide to aesthetically block the car traffic on the promenade… for which they use modular urban furniture — benches, the Flower Towers or litter bins. This solution will certainly increase the comfort of residents in many places.

Wondering what to do with your Christmas tree after Christmas? Give your tree a second life!

Christmas trees are one of the most important Christmas symbols in our culture. Although the custom of decorating a coniferous tree came to us from abroad, at this moment we cannot imagine Christmas without a Christmas tree. Many people decide to buy an artificial tree since such a decoration can serve for many years. Despite this, interest in live Christmas trees in pots has increased significantly in recent years – such a tree looks more natural and smells beautiful, which greatly contributes to creating a real Christmas atmosphere. However, the following question arises: what to do with it after Christmas?



Planting a Christmas tree in a pot in the garden

It is obvious that we prefer to avoid composting a beautiful coniferous tree, therefore, if you managed to buy a Christmas tree in a pot, you can try to transplant it into your garden so that it can permanently join the plant decorations outside. However, you must be careful as it happens that producers cheat their customers by selling them ordinary, cut Christmas trees put in a pot. Therefore, it is worth checking before buying whether the tree is rooted.

If everything is all right and your Christmas tree has roots, you can start preparing to replant it outside. You will need a shovel or spade and potting soil. At the beginning, it is worth putting the tree outside in a pot so that it gradually gets used to the temperature. After a few days, you can take it out of the pot and transplant it into the prepared pit in the garden. Importantly, Christmas trees should be planted when the temperature is above zero – so wait for the frost to subside! Also remember to use the right potting soil, which will ensure that your tree is well established in the soil. In popular stores, you can even buy special soil for planting conifers.

Planting a Christmas tree in green areas on your estate

If you live in a block of flats or a tenement house, and you don’t possess your own garden, you don’t have to write off the Christmas tree at all. Use it as an additional element of greening the areas of the housing estate where you live. Many people pay attention to neglected urban areas, where it is in vain to look for nice shrubs or flowers, let alone a well-kept lawn! Therefore, many residents began to take the initiative and independently implement projects to restore greenery in such places; these can be small green belts at the entrance to a block of flats or a courtyard of tenement houses. It is worth activating the neighbors, or at least informing them that we are going to plant something in this place.

As urban areas do not always have good soil, you may need a shovel and more potting soil. It happens that when digging a hole for your Christmas tree, you will find fragments of rubble or old bricks, on which the tree will unfortunately not grow. After planting the tree, remember to secure it properly – you can put up a self-prepared plate with an inscription informing that you are giving the tree a second life … or simply secure this part of the area with wooden stakes and jute string. Thanks to this, the Christmas tree will be able to root well, and you won’t have to worry about the neighbors’ dogs knocking over the tree just after transplanting.

Decorations made of coniferous branches

If you don’t have any green space to plant a Christmas tree, try using conifer branches as the basis for your new house decoration. Spruce branches don’t have to be just for Christmas! You can use them to make a winter decoration for the door, or compose them with your favorite cut flowers. A bouquet prepared in this way will certainly beautify your table in the dining room or the interior of the living room.

Some creative people also decide to cut the trunk of the Christmas tree. You can conjure up amazing decorations from round slices of wood; if you want to come up with some interesting activity for your children, paint small landscapes on slices of wood and then hang them around the house. Another idea might be making cup coasters out of wood!

Also remember that the Christmas tree does not have to end its life immediately after Christmas. Sometimes it is enough to remove Christmas decorations from it to get a fresh-looking decoration – and not only in the apartment, but also in the urban space!

The Flower Towers – what is the secret of cascade planters?

In addition to traditional flower-beds, concrete or wooden urban pots, the Flower Tower  works very well in public spaces too. Properly selected plant species and the number of seedlings make the metal structure disappear in the thicket of dazzling flowers and leaves. This is why the Flower Towers, creating unique, natural decorations, are chosen by so many cities. However, it is not the only factor here.

What is their secret and why has cascade planter become a permanent element of the urbanized surroundings? You will find the answer to these questions in this post.

Design thought out to the smallest detail

At first glance, our flower pyramid is simply a metal structure consisting of rings that decrease with the height. To answer the question why such an uncomplicated construction works so well, you need to take a closer look at the Flower Towers.

Firstly – the material. It is the steel that is used in the production process of the pyramid. This material is light, easy to shape and cut, durable as well as resistant to external conditions. Metal flower constructions are protected against corrosion by a zinc coating and powder paint – which additionally gives an elegant finish to the whole. Such features allow for the creation of cascade planter that beautify the space for years.

Secondly – a stable internal structure. The Flower Tower can be up to 3 meters high, however, it still remains only a beautiful urban decoration, not a potential danger as there is a strong frame in the center of the rings. Such a frame connects all levels of the structure and allows for permanent attachment to the ground. Thanks to this, the Flower Towers are protected against falling, theft or acts of vandalism.

Thirdly – the finish. Once flowers have grown bigger in the Flower Tower, the metal structure will be completely covered, so it might seem that the finishing aspects are not very important in this case. However, the laser cut steel rings have sharp edges. To prevent injuries when planting flowers, the edges of the rings are covered with special seals.

Fourthly – mobility. The Flower Towers can be disassembled but the unfolded structure is much easier for storage or transport. This is not the only option for moving the Flower Towers. Previously planted pyramids are put in their place thanks to a forklift or a crane (the Flower Tower is equipped with a transport module).

Easy care is the key to healthy flowers

Plant Care is significantly facilitated by the fact that all levels, except the lowest one, in the Flower Tower are bottomless. This solution allows the roots to grow without limitation, and thus obtain really healthy and lush flowers.

Undivided space between levels also make things easier when watering plants in the Flower Tower. The lack of bottoms in the rings means that the water spreads inside in all directions and each of the seedling has an access to it, therefore the risk of overflow is much lower.

Can plant care in the Flower Tower be easier? Yes! It is enough to enrich the soil with a special nutrient TerraHydrogelVit to provide the roots with the maximum amount of minerals and water. The Flower Towers can also be equipped with an irrigation system. This is an extremely convenient option that will make all the rings of the steel pyramid evenly watered without too much effort.

Cascade planter suitable for any space

In addition to the well-thought-out design and facilitated care of plants, the Flower Towers have another great advantage. It comes in many sizes so thanks to it, adjusting to the needs of the space will be easier than you think.

Smaller models from 700 – 1200 mm high are great for separating space, nevertheless, they do not obstruct visibility and are perfect for pedestrian paths along the street. The smaller cascade planter can play an additional decorative role in a square, by a monument or a fountain.

Real giants (2000 mm and more) truly emphasize the importance of the place and complement large open spaces. The market square or promenade look much better with a row of the Flower Towers, and in front of the historic town hall will encourage tourists to take a commemorative photo.

The Flower Towers have a circle in the base, but in order to become a distinctive decoration of the entrance to the building, the offer also includes the so-called “halves”. Such a structure is based on a semicircle and thus it can be placed directly next to a wall or fence.

In addition, each Flower Tower looks great in a group, so you can freely combine different models. This way you will get a one-of-a-kind effect. If you are not sure how to plan plantings in your surroundings, ask the Terra Group team, who will help you choose the best combinations of flowers and also prepare visualizations of the project.

A natural decoration for years

The Flower Towers are resistant and durable, therefore, with proper maintenance, they will certainly please the eye for many years and never get bored.

The Flower Tower is made up of many levels with dozens of plant seedlings. It gives almost endless arrangement possibilities. What kind of plants should we choose so that they look great throughout the season? What colors should we choose so that they fit perfectly into the surroundings? One should answer such questions before getting flowers. Although it may seem trivial, the excess of options can cause quite a headache.

Fortunately, you can always take a look at already created compositions to get inspiration. That is why we have prepared some interesting ways of planting the Flower Towers.

Contrasting colors and different plant varieties are the key to success.  

Flower mishmash

Decorating the Flower Tower? No problem! Just select a few plants, preferably in different, contrasting colors, and plant them in loosely spaced groups. Is it really that simple? Not completely. The trick is to create such a composition that the aesthetic mishmash does not become a mess.

You will achieve a good effect if you use various colors of one plant to decorate the Flower Tower. Such a combination will always look nice, regardless of the plant’s arrangement. It is good to put individual plant varieties in groups. In this way, it will be possible to obtain a unique and aesthetic composition.

You will achieve a good effect if you use various colors of one plant to decorate the Flower Tower.

If you want the Flower Tower to look more avant-garde and colorful, go for a contrast. However, you have to be very careful not to overdo it. A good approach is to create a simple base and add some vivid elements to it. For example, the Flower Tower decorated with layers of colorful petunia can be interlaced with lime ipomea. This combination is a recipe for an eye-catching composition.

The Layered Flower Tower

If you prefer simplicity and order to extravagance, planting layers will hit the spot. There is one rule, the plant or its color changes with each level. The recipe is simple and proven. As you can see, the Flower Tower with plantings arranged in layers does not have to look boring or bland. Contrasting colors and a variety of plants are the key to success.

Normally, or maybe diagonally?

An alternative to the plants arranged in standard layers is a composition with diagonal layers. The variant requires a bit more practice when planting, but the final effect is worth the effort. The Flower Tower, decorated with white, pink, purple fuchsia, as well as lime ipomea, creates a cheerful, fairy-tale composition.

In winter and in summer – openwork decorations stay classy the whole year!

Associated with the Christmas magic, openwork decorations bring to mind some cosy atmosphere and… they are perfect as flower containers at other times of the year. It is hard to find more comprehensive solution for cities – here are openwork decorations in a version you do not know!

Koziegłowy, Poland | source: www.terrachristmas.com

In Koziegłowy (Poland), the focus was on flexibility. But this is not just any solution – no, no, nothing could be further from the truth! Currently, openwork decorations in the shape of a ball decorate the city, emphasizing the charms of the summer season. Inside the hemispheres that make up the whole, surfinia and pelargonium have been planted. The lower element of the decoration was used as an original city planter. This is how the most beautiful ornament in the area was created – an airy, slightly open ball, which is bubbling with the colors of plants.

Koziegłowy, Poland | source: www.terrachristmas.com

Nothing prevents it from staying in the same place in autumn and even in winter. The skilled hands of a city gardener are enough to turn a typical summer composition into a composition inspired by the end of the year. The already proven solution is planting the most famous autumn flowers, such as, chrysanthemums or heathers inside of the hemishpere. And in winter? In winter, twigs of evergreen plants can appear in the decoration. It is worthwhile to diversify the prepared composition with colorful chains, baubles and string lights … and then spring comes, and thus: the first plantings with pansies or daisies.

Koziegłowy, Poland | source: www.terrachristmas.com

Fiber glass, from which the ball is made, is so durable that it will resist frost, snow or rain. It is also robust to strong sunlight, so the openwork decoration can be exposed outside all year round. This is a good way to save money when using one solid base that changes with every season.
