Looking for Small Terra Cotta Pots for Making Clay People?

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
