You Can DIY a Gachapon-Style Candy Pot Using 100-Yen Shop Materials!
Thanks to being featured on Mezamashi TV, this gachapon-style candy pot has gained popularity* Amazingly, it can be made for just a few hundred yen with materials sold at 100-yen shops! ♡
How to Make a Candy Pot ♡
All the materials needed for the candy pot can be sourced from 100-yen shops like Daiso and Seria♡ Don't underestimate the 100-yen shop! They have a delightful selection of items♩
Here's How to Make It ♩
The items you need to make a candy pot include a plastic or glass jar container, a plastic flower pot and saucer (plastic cups and plates can also be used), a glue gun or adhesive, a sharp tool (for attaching the handle), and your choice of handles, stickers, or decals*
Flip the pot upside down and attach the jar or container on top, then glue the container lid and saucer together* Use a sharp tool to make holes and attach the handles at the desired position, then just decorate with stickers or decals to complete it♩
I want to make a bunch of cute candy pots in different colors♩ The cost to make each one is about 400 yen* It's amazing that you can make two of them for under 1000 yen and still be stylish!♡
Let's Make Cute Candy Pots ♡
The key to cuteness lies in the handle that turns this gachapon! Even if it's called a 100-yen handle, the shapes and designs are plentiful♡ They seem to be sold under names like “drawer knobs,” so you can search for your favorite design*
Attaching a handle to the lid is also adorable♡ For those who want a custom touch, you might find fashionable handles at IKEA, Nitori, or Zara Home*
Candy pots adorned with colorful ribbons ♡ If you're using them at a reception, it would be cute to differentiate the ribbon colors for each table♡
