Not praying mantis. As a kid, I brought a praying mantis cocoon into the house and put it in a jar with holes in the top. Turns out that thousands of tiny praying mantises can climb out of the jar through the holes in the top.

But I have no idea what this is.

It's definitely not that big. I can hold all of them in the palm of my hand and still have room for more.

I believe they put food in there like caterpillars and what not with the larva to eat when they hatch. Cool critters to see hunt.

Not a mud wasp if it's paper like, but a Wasp.

If it's made of mud its a dirt dauber wasp. There are many different species that construct fmdifferent shaped nest. Some are like those and I think are called clay pot wasps. Others do long lines or pipes like organ pipes. All are predators that prey on mostly spiders.

Like Warrior said, there are many varieties of "potter wasps". It looks like one of those.
