terra cotta pot Christmas Soldiers

16 years ago

A gal on GJ forum found these at a yard sale for $5. I thought they were darling, and look easy to make. Some paint and 5 terra cotta pots. You can use any size pots, depending on how big you want your soldier. I've added to these to the album, and hope to make some next year myself.

hugs, Karen

Those are cute, but don't think I would want to store them either.

Karen, those are real cute. I've seen other things like Santas and Snowmen made from the pots too. I think Pack O Fun and Crafts and Things magazines have ran several of them in past years. Luvs
