I am so frustrated. I am looking all over for a place that sells Terra Cotta (clay) pots to make clay people and cannot find them anywhere. These are not the usual size for regular pots for plants, but smaller sizes such as 1 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch, 1 1/4 inch, and 5/8 inch. If they sell these darn instruction booklets why do they not sell the pots or a link to find them. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Dollar tree has them in tiny sizes 4 for $1.00 some have holes in the bottom some do not. If you need a hole in them soak the bottoms in water for 2-3 hours then using a masonry drill bit drill through the bottoms to make your own holes.
I make the clay pot people and I get most of my pots from Pat Catan's
Menards has all sizes and the lowest prices
Amazon has varying pkgs og the small pots
But you have to keep in mind that the pots at the dollar trees is seasonal and they do not carry them in the store anymore. But you can order from online from them
Hobby lobby has them in three small sixes you can get the for 50%off most days.
Michael's has tiny one and Joann frabrics
Pottery Barn has lots and such a great price. Also Walmart on line has all kinds of sizes. Great price as well.
I went to a recycled furniture store that has everything for the house.
Dollar Tree
Wish I could obtain small 1.5 inch lots in england. I would buy bulk of I could.
Hobby Lobby every other week they are half off. They have the smaller ones too
Good evening where can I find you as I need a quanity of them. Iam in Queensland Australia
Dollar tree doesnt have any
Great idea. I was drilling my holes and my 16 yr old nephew told me to use a screw first and then a drill bit. It worker faster!!!
Walmart carry the small ones but they're inside where they sell the craft paint not in the garden center although the garden center does have the bigger ones and some of the smaller ones too
Tambem tenho dificuldades para encontra los para fazer minhas bonecas vasos, consegui encontrar no distribuidor de flores da minha cidade no CEASA. Mas o custo também é fora da realidade
Translation:
I also have difficulties finding them to make my vases dolls, I managed to find them at the flower distributor in my city at CEASA. But the cost is also unrealistic
Vous pouvez les acheter a Truffaut.
Translation: You can buy them in Truffaut
I get my Terra Cotta clay pots for my clay pot people in Michael's. That's the cheapest place I found them. They have from tiny pots to larger pots.
I have gotten the little ones at Walmart out in the garden center before.
I was just looking for 20 4 pots and trays. I was rudely informed when I checked at the Dollar Store, that they are only available in the Spring.
Also forgot to say Ben Franklin crafts has all those tiny sizes if you have one near you.
Dollar stores, craft stores like hobby lobby, michaels, etc. Orientaltrading.com might be a good start also.
Dollar General and Family Dollar do not carry them.
SunshineCrafts.com is also a good place.
Good morning Iam in Queensland Australia and I am looking for some where I can buy small terracotta pots for craft could you please help me as I am not having any luck Thank you Jan
You can usually get them at the craft store such as Michaels, Hobby Lobby or JoAnn Fabrics. Zig
Joann's fabrics does not have the plain Terra cotta pots, just pumpkin looking ones. I was disappointed when I went there looking for them. I found almart to be the cheapest so far
Have you tried gardening centers? I found them there when my craft and dollar stores were all sold out. I am a fan of Sunshine Crafts, they seem to have everything and at a reasonable prices especially for bulk.
Thats so true , so hard to find but looking on eBay you pay a fortune and double priced. Its ridiculous prices to pay..
Walmart also has the small sizes in their craft department.
They sell small ones at Michaels
Most of the ones in the books are made with the wooden pots, or at least the ones I have and they can be found at craft supplies companies. Hope that helps.
Walmart, Home depot (not tiny), 1" on line to Oriental traders
Look for clay pots same thing. Lowes and them all different sizes. And very readable price
Try craft stores. Michaels has a large selection of terra cotta pots from tiny to huge. Pricing is very reasonable too.
Michaels is a U.S. based craft supply store. They also have a website online where you can order directly.
Craft stores or the dollar store are probably the best bet. They also sell them at home improvement stores but I don't think they have smaller sizes. Amazon sells smaller pots but they would be more expensive, especially if you don't have a prime membership.
www.amazon.com/
I found really small ones for the arms at Walmart and Hobby Lobby had a size up for the legs.
Amazon is great for buying Terra cotta pots in all sizes. Reasonable prices too. Give it a try. Thank you amazon!
