Toy Shop Candy Jar Photo

From Sherri Osborn, former About.com Guide

Thomas submitted these pictures of a Clay Pot Toy Shop he made using suggestions shared here . He had to improvise because some of the items called for were not available to him. He decided to leave the middle section unglued and attached two strips of leather (from the wallet/belt making section of his local craft store) to the back, attaching the upper story to the lower story. He gave the lower pot a function, such as holding holiday Hershey Kisses or small dog bones. He also used a clear matte sealer on the pots before he attached the windows, shutters and door to better protect the two halves and minimize the chance of marring the surface of the pots when opening and closing.
