Painted Candy Corn Pots
Are you ready? Here we come!

Fabulous and Easy Painted Candy Corn Pots. Great for treat giving. Tutorial at livelaughrow.com #candycorn

I don’t usually do much with or for Halloween.  It’s just not one of my favorite holidays… so, I tend to celebrate fall more than anything.  However, this year I thought I’d share this fabulous and easy project.  My sister and I used to make these and sell them at craft fairs years ago. They’re fun, easy and include a festive sweet treat!

Supplies:  

Yellow/Gold, White + Orange Acrylic Paint
Small terra cotta pots
Paint Brushes

All set?  Let’s do this!  Go ahead and mark with a pencil where you’d like your stripes to go.
I painted mine free-hand; however, feel free to use painters tape to tape it off for straight lines.

DIY Painted Cand Corn Pots. First step is to determine where you want your stripes...Now, let’s get painting!  You can start at the top, bottom or middle.
Whatever works best for you!  You’ll want to do a couple coats.
I guess, technically, you don’t have to paint the orange on, but… I like it to be consistent.

DIY Painted Candy Corn Pots. Second step is to start painting your stripes!Yellow + Orange + White = Candy Corn!

DIY Painted Candy Corn Pots. Fill treat bags with candy corn — or my favorite: Candy Corn and Peanuts!
I tied mine closed with a piece of twine, then completed the look with a black bow.

Total Cost: Less than $3.00.  Yup, now it’s fabulous and inexpensive!

Fabulous and Easy Painted Candy Corn Pots. Great for treat giving. Tutorial at livelaughrow.com #candycornVoila!  The perfectly sweet favor or gift for guests, friends, family and/or co-workers!
What do you think?  I think I’m off to snack on the candy corn and peanuts!  Cheers.

    Although we can’t buy candy corn in the UK 🙁 I would fill the pots with fruit salads and black jacks 🙂

    I love it- only I might have to chose a candy that I’m not as fond of- otherwise they might just get an empty pot.
