- Gather all materials, including a clay pot, acrylic paints in white, black, and red, a large paint brush, a small detail paint brush, a straw hat, red felt, cardboard, scissors, and hot glue and a glue gun.
- Using the large paint brush, apply a base coat of white acrylic paint to the clay pot and allow it to dry completely.
- Using the small detail brush and black paint, add eyes and eyelashes to the pot. Use the same brush to add a few curls at the top of the pot to create the chicken’s head.
- Use thin lines of black paint to create the chicken’s feet.
- Use black paint and the large brush to make round swoops for the chicken’s wings on either side of the pot.
- Use the small brush and red paint to add a beak to the chicken’s face. Once the paint is dry, apply a finishing spray to seal it.
- Cut two crown shapes from the red felt. Glue the crowns to a piece of cardboard to create a sturdy base.
- Use scissors to cut a slit in the top of the straw hat. Glue the hat to the top of the pot.
- Insert the crown into the slit in the hat and hot glue it in place.
- Add some dried flowers or leaves to the top of the hat to finish the chicken clay pot.
Optional: Use off-white felt to create a tail for the chicken and hot glue it to the back of the pot.Try again
