2 terra cotta pots, a witch hat, witch legs and paint to make a terra cotta halloween witch.

I was lucky enough to find a witch hat that had the witches legs attached to them at the 99 Cents Store. If you cannot find them, the Dollar Tree has witch legs that you can use to attach as well.

How to make your own Terra Cotta Pot Witch

two terra cotta pots painted black and green

Begin by painting the pots, one black and the other one green. When they are dry, glue them together with your hot glue gun.

Next, I cut off the legs and the black lace that was attached to the witches hat. I glued the legs onto the black pot.

For her hair, I took some raffia and glued it to the top of the of the green terra cotta pot. TIP: Take two sections of raffia and tie them in the center to have better control when you are gluing them on.

Hot glue on the two googly eyes. I used a small rock from my yard for her nose and painted it green to match her face.

Add some ribbon where the two pots come together to clean it up the seams.

Have fun dressing her up! I added a cute bow to her hat and used a spider ring and these small plastic bones for the center of the bow. You can find them at the Dollar Tree.
