Gumball Machine

This project can be made to hold candy or anything else you might want to keep in a cute jar. My daughter picked out the "diva pink" paint, and has decided to keep her rubber bands for her hair in it.

Supplies:
1 6" terra cotta pot
1 6" terra cotta saucer
1 1-1/2" wooden knob
1 glass bowl votive holder
Diva Pink paint
Hot Glue gun or epoxy
Ribbon (optional- I didn't picture it below, but did show it used in the last step)







Step 1: Paint inside of saucer. Let dry completely. Apply 2 coats.



Step 2: Paint wooden knob. Let dry completely. Apply 2 coats.



Step 3: Paint outside of pot. Let dry completely. Apply 2 coats.



Step 4: Paint outside of saucer. Let dry completely. Apply 2 coats.



Step 5: Apply hot glue/epoxy to bottom of pot, as shown below. Quickly place glass bowl on top of glue like shown in picture.
Note: This becomes the bottom of your gumball machine.

Step 6: Apply hot glue/epoxy to bottom of saucer, as shown below. Quickly place wooden knob on top of glue like shown in picture.

Note: This will become the lid.

Step 7: (optional) Tie a decorative bow where the glass bowl and the terra cotta pot meet, as shown in picture below.

That's it! :)
