Dollar store craft? Yup! Cool huh? It's unbelievable how many things you can craft with a pinch of creativity. I had a few extra clay pots lying around & wanted to do something fun. These are so easy to make & so cheap! Plus, you can use them to hold so many different things!
MATERIALS:
Clay pot & Saucer
Acrylic paint & Brushes
I purchased all the materials at the dollar store for a dollar each. Cool right?
1. Paint with a base color of your choice.
2. Turn the pot upside down & glue the saucer on top.
I used a glue gun.
3. Decorate!!
I just used paint, but if you want to go crazy, you can add ribbons, glitter, gems...
How would you decorate these?
...and voila! Cuuuuuuute huh? If you make one, send me a link or photo, I'd love to see them!
How fun! Love this idea for a DIY project ;)

Just when you thought terra cotta pots couldn't get cooler, they did!!!! i love this! I also loved seeing all the tutorials on pinterest where you paint them black and put chocolate coins in them to make a "pot of gold "
