We have a bunch of these ceramic pots which often come as gifts when people give us plants.

No drainage holes. What use are they? They’re so small I think only succulents would be an option, but wouldn’t they just rot in water?

    For harder ceramics like these a diamand coated bit (they aren’t as expensive as the name makes the seem), always use water and drill through super slow so it doesn’t crack (a minute or longer). Good luck!!

      Also make sure it is a masonry/ceramic bit. In my my experience that matters more than the diamond coating (I use very cheap steel bits). Drill press is also much easier to control speed and depth, so use that if you have one
