Halloween Decor: Spooky Clay Pots

Ordinary clay pots become spooky Halloween decorations with just a little imagination. Project from Your Family Crafts Guide.
Materials Needed:

  • 2 inch Terra Cotta Clay Pot
  • 1 1/2 inch Wooden Ball Head
  • White Fun Foam
  • Paint
  • Clear Acrylic Sealer Spray
  • Glue (hot glue gun preferred)

Instructions:
Wipe down your terra cotta pot with a damp cloth and let dry completely.

Paint the clay pot and the wooden ball head white. Put them aside to dry.

Once the paint is dry, glue the wooden ball onto the bottom of the clay pot (figure 1). Paint a face on the wooden ball (figure 2). Once all your paint is dry, spray it with the clear acrylic sealer.

Cut out two ghost arms out of white fun foam. Something like this:

Glue these to the side of your clay pot! Your ghost is now complete.
