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!

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

    Thank you for sharing

      Thanks, Claire! You can’t buy candy corn in the UK? Why is that? Well, I’m sure any sweet treat will do. Have a fabulous week, friend. HUGS!

    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.

      Giggle… Thanks for making me smile, Pam. My husband would probably agree with you, but I do get the necessary amount of sleep I need to keep functioning 🙂 Have a lovely day. xo

    Those pots are really cute! Love the colors and the fact that it’s even “crafting for dummies”-friendly 😉 Happy autumn, Kelly.

    Those are too cute! I love the treat bag idea with the black ribbon. I’m also wishing I had that adorable little sign. 🙂
