Candy-Corn Pot How-To
1. Tuck handfuls of candy corn into giants of their species. Use a pencil to mark stripes on pots. Brush on acrylic paints between lines to make bands, letting each color dry before moving on to the next. When painting the top stripe, go over the lip of pot and paint inside (so it will look good even as it's emptied).

2. Tuck in a note or scary message.
