Terra Cotta Pot people are so cute and adorable and easy to make, believe it or not. They are a wonderful addition to any type of garden. Just take a look at this sweet looking flower pot girl I made for my outdoor area. For a complete tutorial visit http://plumperfectandme.blogspot.com/2013/06/terra-cotta-flower-pot-girl.html
I got most of my pots at the craft store for 50% off and the larger ones I used for the body were reasonably priced at the hardware store. Here’s a breakdown of what I used:
12 clay pots – 5″ for legs
12 clay pots – 4.25″ for arms
2 clay pots – 8.25″ for body
1 clay pot – 8.25″ for head
1 pool noodle
Jute rope – approx. 6 yards
Outdoor acrylic paint/sharpie paint pens or terra cotta paint pens
E6000 glue
Accessories to decorate pots
Clear acrylic sealer
*Update – I made this back in 2013, and as the result of the harsh winter of 2015, and leaving the pot girl outside, I would use nylon rope instead of jute twine. Unfortunately, the plaited twine deteriorated in places.
