🎨Paints: Use a good quality craft acrylic paint, if your paint is runny or seems thin, it won't perform as well as paints that have body and are not thin.

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.🪴🪴
Yay! I love how we are always on the same page!
Love that stencil ❤
I missed you Lena, so happy to watch you again.
Thank you!! We love our Lena videos too!!
I hoped the guest was you! Thanks for the info. Great presentation.
Good guess 😉
Beautiful work. It was good to see Lena.
Thank you!!!
Thanks Lena! I love the paisley pots!
Thank you! Us too!
This video was very instructional and helpful. I love your style Ms. Lena. By the way, I preferred the high gloss finish.
Thank you! So glad you got to tune in!!
Love the gloss and paisley! Awesome video.
Thank you! We had fun with this one!
Perfect lesson ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!!!!
Hello Lena!! So good to see your face.
Thank you!!!!!
Do you apply the sealer before you paint a solid color on your pot and then again over it before you stencil and then put a final coat or sealer on after that? I just painted a few terracotta pots a solid color now I want to try stencil but I’m not sure what to do..
Thanks!!
We have found that sealing the outside and the inside of terracotta pots works very well. You can paint after you seal and then use a multipurpose sealer again for the final sealing when you're finished painting.
I had heard that you needed to use a marine grade sealer for clay pots. Is that not true? The stenciled pots are beautiful!
We have never heard this. We've used the DecoArt MultiPurpose Sealer before painting and polyurethane varnish after painting and have had no issues. We have several pots that we've painted over the years that are holding up lovely!!

Is there a stencil material other than mylar that is easier to maneuver to adhere to the pot?
If the pot has angled sides, you'll likely run into issues regardless the material of the stencil. Even with a vinyl stencil, you'll get some creasing along the angle. We recommend using parts of stencils like Lena did here and moving it along. Or using small stencils. If you use smaller stencils, you may have less issues with the angle of the pot.
What paint are you using?
We use house paint from Sherwin Williams. We paint a lot and buy in bulk. If you want to send us an email, I can send you a photo of exactly what we get. kari.G@studior12.com
We often use DecoArt paint as well.
U can keep painting is it not wet?
Hey Karen! Which part of the video are you referencing?
@StudioR12Stencils I see u painting and then go on to next one near it and paint. So I was wondering u don't need to let it dry before doing another section. Sorry if I didn't explain it good lol
What’s the name of the sealer?
MultiPurpose Sealer: studior12.com/products/decoart-multi-purpose-sealer-2-oz?_pos=1&_sid=cd981ec23&_ss=r
