- Here is a look at my latest pour. Prior to painting the pot, I gave it a good wipe down to make sure I was working with as a dry and dust free an environment as possible.
Oops - yes, I've addled the typo. It should say phthalo blue, not pthalo blue. My bad!
What a delight to watch...relaxing music, lovely pour and you are not pushing your life history on us. You are just getting on with the job of teaching and sharing your skills with us.
😀👌
Wallis I had feedback from a couple of people (including my daughter) that I should play music instead of talk... Think I'm boring! LOL I think this is better anyway. Quicker too. Thanks for your feedback ☺
Thank you for terracotta pot tutorial wonderful. Love your other paintings as well.
Dawn Haylock thank you Dawn, I'm pleased to hear you're enjoying watching. :)
Do you spray the outside and inside with something. Love the pots
Beautiful! So relaxing to watch xx
Sharon Walker thank you :)
Thank you for this. Video love the tutorial the way you have done this with the instructions over the top. Colors are beautiful.
dawn haylock Thank you Dawn. I'm working on an edit at the moment with more detail on my paint mixes. Means it will be a touch longer but I've had a couple of requests. Hope you find that one interesting as well!
Very cool love the blues!
I just found your channel. Hooray! This turned out beautiful. I always wondered about others ways dirty pours could be done. Thanks you I'm closer to finding out more. This would make a great gift. ♡
Preciosa Flower thank you and welcome :) it's great fun doing the pours onto pots and they have been quite popular purchases as gifts as well as for customers personal use.
Great idea. I am going to give this a go.
Nicki B I hope you have a great time!
What kind of brand of pva did u use? also can i mix silicone oil spot on treadmill on it?
What do you seal these with?
Thanks for answering.
sultan Merchant my pleasure 👍🙄
Very pretty!
What sort of turntable is that? It's really nice.
Rosanne Hillock hi Rosanne, it's just a lazy susan. The type you put food on in the middle of a table. I picked it up in a Chinese shop recently. I've got a smaller one as well but found it wasn't big enough for my larger projects!
Que tinta e essa mostra embalagem Parabéns ficou lindo
Puedo cambiar flote rol por alguna crema líquida...de manos..
Which option is good for creating cell, heat gun or blow torch?
sultan Merchant the best option is a flame torch. Ones used by a chef in a kitchen are the best type to use as they are small and safer. You may need to shop around to find the type that suites you best but they are fairly easy to find, particularly in homewares shops or cooking shops. All the best!
Gorgeous ... what does the rim look like? How did you seal? Thanks
Maureen Houston Hi! The internal of the pot is sealed with Bondall Pot and Ornament Sealer which was recommended to me by a girlfriend after I'd produced this video. Thankfully before I'd put anything else onto the internal! The external is sealed with a high gloss spray varnish suitable for acrylic paints.
The base of the pot dried quite quickly so I was able to lift it from the pool of paint and sit it over the top of a roll of hand towels to complete drying. Previously I've done this for the entire pour rather than sit it directly on a surface. The rim was a little messy in a couple of places so I tidied it up with some paint before sealing it all. When the pour is done while it "hangs" this isn't such a problem. Hope this helps, thanks for watching 🙄
Do you put anything on after the paint dries
Yes, I put dulux indoor/ outdoor clear spray. Usually two coats.
I am so doing these to sell at markets
I can’t tell how big that pot is, but I have a really big one I want to do. How do you know how much paint to mix. I would also like yours recipe for mixing the ingredients you used since it looks just like what I want to do. I’m new to paint pouring. I will be using A paint called mural paint but I’m not sure how thick it is from the jar. Please advise. Thanks
Myrna McColley Hi there, the paints I'm using are fairly thick and that pot from memory was around 30cm tall. I guess it's trial and error with how much paint to mix but also comes from knowing how much to mix for different sized canvases. I use around 1:1 paint to pva though often less pva, and add floetrol until it's the thickness I want out to be, probably around 4:1 floetrol to paint, maybe a bit more. I don't actually have an exact recipe as I very much go by feel. The end viscosity you are after is something like slightly warm honey, fairly thick but thin enough that it flows off your mixing stick rather than drips or runs freely. I hope this makes sense! All the best with your pouring!
Love this a lot 😍great job 👍
Relaxing music too 🙌🏻
Tfs!
Can u put dirt and real life plants in it ?
Azizeh Rabbo yes, you can. It's sealed internally with a terracotta pot sealer to prevent damage to the paintwork on the outside and once the paint dries, I put a minimum of two coats of varnish on. Sometimes I'll put three but that will depend on the pattern on the pot and any number of personal preferences rather than actual need.
Beautiful and original 😍
The base looks amazing, it's a pitty we cannot see it 🤦🏻♀️
What happens with the border of the pot? Wouldn't be easier to support the pot on something, so the border isn't in contact with the plate? 🤔
It's funny you can paint a plate at the same time 👍🏻
Thanks for sharing
Salutations from Spain 💃
Hi!
I can't remember if this one was supported or not, but I do stand them on something now so that the rim isn't messed up. Usually I'll paint just the top of the rim with one of the colours to make it tidy though. I did think about pouring the plates to match but the paint would pool in out and be really thick so I started painting them with a brush but the pot would stick and pull off the paint so I gave up! Even with little rubber feet that I put on them it would ruin the plate. I'm open to ideas to fix that though! Thanks for your feedback 🙂
Podem me dizer que tintas uzar nestes maravilhosos vasos.
Tenho muita vontade de aprender.
Really pretty. You use these outside? Won't the rain wash away the paint?
Sue M no they are water treated, internal to seal add any other terracotta pot and externally the paint is varnished with several coats of a spray on varnish which claims to be water resistant. I couldn't assure you on how long they will last as I've not been painting pots for more than six months and was canvases only prior to then. Unfortunately I can only go with the recommendation that indoor feature or patio for the longest life span, however, they will also last for at least some time outdoors. If be hoping at minimum a year but perhaps (if I'm lucky!) A lifetime. You can also use regular acrylic house paint to do this if you have concerns around your own projects. Just add the colour pigment to the white and then mix as per required liquidity. I do hope this helps with your concerns but feel free to ask more ☺ Kalena
WHAT A WONDERFUL POT.
HOW BEAUTIFUL, ONE OF A KIND.
GREAT IDEA...I LOVE IT.
DID YOU MANAGE TO DO ANYTHING WITH RUN OFF PAINT?
CAMILLE AUSTRALIA 😃
Camille Fulton Thank you so much :) I certainly have been working with the skin from this. A few minutes ago I posted a photo to Instagram shopping a few of the pieces of jewellery I've been making for the markets I attend.
How do you address the rim of the pot?? Do you just cut off the paint? Did you mask off the rim? I imagine the rim would look bumpy and bad looking.
While the paint is finishing running off the sides I use a mixing stick or skewer to remove the drips and leave a smooth edge. I do this by spinning the pot and holding the skewer to the edge. As you noted, if it dries there it looks dreadful! Sometimes the colours used will blend and look nasty doing that so I'll choose a colour and paint just the edge of the rim once it's dried. Your suggestion of taping it off would also work. The sky is the limit with what you can do as a finishing touch to the rim, it's all about having fun!
Very pretty, love the colors. But how did you move the pot before it stuck to the rest of the paint around it? I was waiting to see you "grab it by the hole in the top" somehow and then move it...! :-) Thanks for the video.
Thank you 🙂 I have the pots on tall glasses so that the paint falls through the hole into the cup and flows down onto the surface below. The first couple I did had nothing under them so I did have to pick them up and put them onto something to hold the above the paint. They were very heavy for a single finger in the middle! The turn table also helps with getting the paint all around it. Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
@@kalenaflows4574 I definitely enjoyed it, thanks so much for the reply. :-)
Which paint fid you use??
I use Mount marte paints.
👍💖💖💖💖
Cambiar floetrol por otra crema

Carole Penhale King thanks :) I do indeed save the paint, I create jewellery with it once it's dry.
