The Magic Potion To Make A Witches’ Cauldron

What is the magic potion to make a witches’ cauldron? Use your repurposing powers and flowers, ornaments, eyeballs, crystal beads and sparkle!

The Cauldron

For your cauldron you can use any black ceramic pot. I used a ceramic black planter, tureen, or vase – not sure which – from the thrift store.

Here are a few ideas for a cauldron that I think would be fabulous!

Put The Magic Into The Cauldron

How To Make The Culdron

1st Step

• Stuff paper into the bottom of your cauldron
• Run a bead of hot glue around rim of cauldron
• Stick styrofoam ball onto hot glue

2nd Step

• Stick skewers into styrofoam ball at varying heights
• Remove the top of your ornament
• Put hot glue on the tip of your skewer and slide ornament on
• Hold for a few seconds until it cools
• Add eyeballs to your ornaments – I did this with this project and now everything gets eyeballs!!

3rd Step

• Continue to add ornaments on skewers until cackling with happiness
• String beads on bead string, make sure it is long enough to “drip” down the sides of your cauldron
• Tie these bubbles (bead strings) onto your skewers on the outer edge
• Add in flowers to fill the gaps – if unable to poke them in the styrofoam use a skewer to make a hole.
