Terra Cotta Pot Crafting
For a long time now I have wanted to do things with terra cotta pots. There are some amazing ideas found on Pinterest and other sites on the Internet showing. Some wild and crazy things to make with colors unbelievable. There are some functionally practical things for every day use. At this time, I have opted for a functional practical use. Why? Anyone who knows me will tell you how spoiled my Little Dog is. I am wrapped around his little ‘claw’. When I saw this idea, he just has to have one. Though most will not admit it, they too are wrapped around their own ‘Little Dog’s’ claw.
Little Dog can never have enough treat jars! After all, he has his biscuit treats for when I have to leave the house, his teeth cleaning treats, and his ‘Mommy needs to bribe you to do something’ treats. He’s 13-years-old and lets now fool ourselves, I am bribing him now not training him! I do love that Little Dog. He is my inspiration for this project. So off we go to create Puppy Treat Jars.
