In case you missed this a few weeks ago, here is the tutorial to make these fun candy corn painted flower pots.
This is a great craft to do with your kiddos.  Mine loved it!

Materials:
terra cotta flower pots
yellow, orange, & white acrylic paint (although you could skip the orange since pot is already orange)
paint brush
styrofoam balls that will fit inside pot
big lollipops
not shown: double sided tape and embellishments for lollipops

Step 1: Paint your pots
Here I have my son demonstrating how simple this step is.  We first painted the middle section orange and let it dry.  Then we painted the rim of the pot yellow.  Once that was dry, we turned it upside down and painted our white along the bottom edge.

Step 2: Set your styrofoam inside the pot
I first spray painted my styrofoam.  I had black paint so that is what I used.  Plus the sticks on my lollipops were black, so that’s what I went with.  While they are drying, put some double sided tape in the pot along the edge about 1 inch down from the rim.  Then you can gently push your styrofoam into your pot and not be afraid of it moving of coming out.

Step 3:  Insert your lollipops into your flower pot
I found these candy corn colored lollipops at dollar tree and that is where the inspiration for this project came from.  I let the kids each pick a Halloween embellishment and we stuck it to the front of the lollipops.  Then I inserted them into the middle of the styrofoam ball and pushed them down until I liked the height.

My son was able to do the painting all by himself and little miss needed a little help from mom, but they both loved this craft.  I’m sure glad I had those lollipops to stick in there, or else Mr. C would have taken it outside to find some flowers to put in there. 🙂  Which you could totally do and would be a cute gift, or you could fill them with candy.

Happy Crafting!
