Terracotta Toothpick Holder

Here is a unique craft idea to spruce up your kitchen table. Create a cute toothpick holder out of a terracotta clay pot. The following are the items you will need:

1 ½ inch or 2 inch clay pot
Cotton twist cord
Brown felt
White glue
Paintbrush
Glue gun
Beads or buttons for decoration

Begin by cutting a one inch circle out of the brown felt and glue it inside the bottom of the clay pot. Paint glue over the entire surface of the clay pot and allow it to dry. Paint more glue heavily on the outside of the pot and start gluing the cotton twist cord around and around the pot until you end at the top. Cut the cord and allow the pot to dry. Decorate the pot with beads, buttons, or other items. Fill the pot with toothpicks and you now have a cute toothpick holder.
