For best results you'll want to make sure you're using a high-quality polymer clay. There's no need to add a sealant or glaze to your pot after you make it, but if you want it to have a shine or a matte look, a glazes are a great finish.
Polymer clay is water proof, so you'll want to add a drainage hole to allow water to flow out of the pot. This will ensure your succulents will be happy in their personalized homes.
You'll find a lot of fun and inspiring pots on Instagram and through searching Google or Pinterest. If you want to make some tiny pots, we have some miniature succulent inspiration you can check out here.
Once you have your pot made (remember to add a drainage hole) you can find instructions for planting succulents here.
