Is there a stencil material other than mylar that is easier to maneuver to adhere to the pot?
Great to see you Lena. Thanks for the great information today. I have some pots that I want to stencil soon. This past week I washed them in vinegar water and I let them dry as I knew this helpful video was coming. All these tips are wonderful and thanks for sharing.🪴🪴
I hoped the guest was you! Thanks for the info. Great presentation.
This video was very instructional and helpful. I love your style Ms. Lena. By the way, I preferred the high gloss finish.
Thanks Lena! I love the paisley pots!
What’s the name of the sealer?
What paint are you using?
Love the gloss and paisley! Awesome video.
Hello Lena!! So good to see your face.
Beautiful work. It was good to see Lena.

I had heard that you needed to use a marine grade sealer for clay pots. Is that not true? The stenciled pots are beautiful!
