These mini terracotta pots make fun décor when painted white, orange and yellow and stacked like candy corn.
And according to my lil’ guy they make a great gift for his Aunt as well. Before starting this simple Fall creation you’ll need to pick up a six pack of mini terracotta pots from the craft store. A pack of six cost me two dollars.
Supplies:
Paint Brush & Paint – Yellow, Orange & White
Six Small Terracotta Pots & String or Ribbon
Optional:
Paint Marker
Directions:
Paint two pots Yellow, two pots Orange, and two pots White
After they dry thread your string or ribbon through one of each colored pot
Tie a knot at the level preferred for each pot to hang
(yellow on bottom, orange in the middle, and white on top)
Use a second string to thread the other pot of each color
Tie the two string of pots together
I used a Paint Marker to write “Happy Fall” on one side and “Happy Halloween” on the opposite side so that these mini pots offered a friendly welcome whichever way they faced.
These candy corn decoration are super cute!! What a great idea!!

Hi Maria!! I did. 🙂 And thank you. I can’t wait to check out your new look.
Those are adorable. My girls would love making those and I have to go to the craft store tomorrow for costume supplies. I’m going to grab some tiny pots.
Thanks so much for stopping by!! The tiny pots were six for 1.99 ~ can’t beat a craft like that. And my three year old painted one set of each color entirely. 🙂 Have fun!!
These are adorable! I love the simplicity – my kids LOVE to paint! Genius!
Thanks so much for stopping by! My lil’ guy is quite the painter as well. This was the first project that he painted every inch of… usually we have a few “missed” spots that are still perfect to display. 🙂
Oh, that’s adorable! What a great project!
Thanks for stopping by Deborah. They were a ton of fun to create and for only a couple bucks. TOTAL SCORE. 🙂
