DIY Fun Ideas...

I found some really cute DIY ideas on Pinterest, such as:

  • DIY gumball machine!
Today is the day I give you the instructions on how to make a gumball machine. First of all,

You will need:
1 terra cotta pot {with saucer base}

1 wooden ball {found at craft store}

1 wooden doll pin stand {found at craft store}

1 tube of E600 glue OR hot glue {& glue gun}

1 round bubble bowl {you can find these at Walmart)

1 can of spray paint 



Here are Steps #1-5


STEP ONE: Paint your terra cotta pot & base, your round wooden ball and your doll pin stand 

with the spray paint and let dry.

STEP TWO: Place terra cotta pot upside down and apply glue to the bottom. Then attach the 

round bubble bowl to resemble a gumball machine.

STEP THREE: Turn the terra cotta saucer base upside down and glue the round wooden head 

bead to the center top and let dry.

STEP FOUR: Attach the wooden doll pin stand to the front of the terra cotta pot to resemble an 

opening.

STEP FIVE: Place the terra cotta saucer on top of the bubble bowl {it will act as a lid, coming 

on and off} and…

YOU HAVE A GUMBALL MACHINE!

Hope You Like the Craft! I will have more tomorrow!
