Easy Clay Cactus in a Tiny Pot (Video + Visual Guide)

This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase something through my links I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only share products I actually used and loved.

Some projects need a materials list and twelve captioned steps. This one needs ninety seconds of video and one picture.

A tiny cactus in a tiny yellow pot: green air-dry clay for the body, white dots for the spines, pink for the flowers, and a pot filled with little white clay pebbles so the whole thing reads like it came from a desert gift shop. Watch the video, then follow the card if you want the steps frozen in place.

You will need: air-dry clay in green, yellow, pink, and white, and a basic sculpting tool for the spines and details.

If the tiny-pot format is a hit at your table, the rest of our clay projects pick up right where this one leaves off.
