Thanks!

You’re most welcome! Glad this one was helpful and thanks for your support.

@@earthglow Sure:) I have a question, desperately searching for the Evermore vessels…do you have any idea on where to find them?

[@selenamcbride2516]

Good Afternoon, i would like to see the other method of sanding the vessals. I really want to learn to make my own vessals. Can you tell me how many times i woild need to replace the sand disk and the pottery well doesnt have to be replace correct?
Thank you so much for always sharing.
Don't know if i ever told you thank for sharing the lavender driftwood and sea mineral. 2nd best seller.

[@earthglow]

Thanks for letting me know! You won’t need to replace that disc much. It is made from diamond sanding bits which are extremely hard and durable. I have not had to replace mine in the several years I have had it.

[@onyaeonyae7]

So helpful, thank you! Do you notice sponge marks when you seal on the outside?

[@earthglow]

It will have a slight vertical and horizontal patterning but I actually find it pleasant. It reminds me of canvas.

@@earthglow Coolio. I have the Varnish and P/Sealer (Nancy is amazing) but wow it's such a nice compliment. I need to take time with it. Thank you again - super helpful!

[@earthglow]

Absolutely! Glad you enjoyed this one 😊

Hi Allen! How do you package these? (Stella)

[@earthglow]

Hi Stella! I use a 4x6x6 black gloss box from Uline and crinkle wrap as well as crinkle paper within a regular box. Hope this helps!
