Terracotta Worm for your planter. This 5 inch Terracotta Squirmie Worm will sense the moisture level in your plant.
When you first get him soak him in water for about 5 minutes. Then place him in your potted plant. As the soil drys out he'll become a lighter orange. He'll also feel warmer to the touch, not as cold.
A great way to know when it's time to water your plant without getting your fingers dirty.
He's super cute peeking over the top of your planter. A wonderful way to add a bit of whimsy to your plants. It's practical also.
This listing is for one handmade 5'' Terracotta Squirmie Garden Worm. They make great gifts for the gardener in your life. Also wonderful house warming gifts.
Each one is handmade from low fire terracotta clay, which is porous so it'll absorb the moistsure in your soil. Since they are hand sculpted no two are exactly alike.

Meet the Maker
I’m a self taught clay artist, I began my love affair with clay in high school. My remarkable art teacher Miss Rebecca Barnett taught us all the mediums she could drag into the art room. Clay is the one that stuck with me.
All of my pieces are hand sculpted from stoneware, most of them start out as pinch pots. They are bisque fired, then high fired. Cold glazed after the last firing.
At first I exhibited at small local shows, as my confidence grew I applied to larger festivals. Haven’t looked back since.
I’ve been working in clay for over 20 years, participating in art festivals from Illinois to Key West. Over the years my art has evolved. When I see some of my earlier work I’m amazed at how much it’s changed and improved.
I’ve won several awards, been on TV, written up in newspapers and also online blogs. My work is in homes from Alaska to Florida, hopefully making people smile.
I’m constantly learning new things about clay and firing. Not to mention all the wonderful textures that can be achieved using common household items. My love affair with clay is ongoing and hopefully will be for many years to come
