- These babes are a labor of love! Today I'm showing how I use decals for surface design with my glazes. I'm striving to achieve a look of 'stained glass' with this process, excited to share it with you and see what you think!

That is a beautiful mug.
Thank you 😊
This is amazing
Why thank you so much! Hope you give it a try 😊
Great tutorial. Love the design
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed 😊
I’m so inspired. I wondered how in the world you could mimic stained glass in ceramics and now I know. Cheers for detailed hand crafted design🎉
Oh goodness thank you so so much for this comment! I’m honored you find it inspiring 😊 glad you enjoyed, cheers!
Those are awesome!! I love both of them!! You did such a great job of explaining your process too!
Thank you so so much!! I’m so glad it was easy to follow, I didn’t think it was so involved till I started trying to explain it 😂
I love this!! Thank you for the inspiration and the encouragement.
You are more than welcome!! Thank you so much for the comment 😊
Very much enjoyed your video!
Thank you so much for letting me know! I’m so happy you enjoyed it 😊
Your designs are beautiful. Good on you ❤
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed :)
I definitely will be giving this a shot! 😊 My oldest daughter has a Cameo machine. After her Cricut got stolen along with her large heat press, she found someone selling a smaller heat press. She told the woman what happened to her former equipment & she sent her home with the heat press AND the Cameo machine because she didn’t have time to enjoy it. It helped my daughter so much. She loves working with the machine, albeit she isn’t a fan of the weeding part. My youngest daughter likes to weed; she finds it therapeutic. LOL!
I’d love to try a full or side view butterfly on a mug or rice bowl.
Yay! Please give it a try and let me know how it goes, it can be a bit tedious but I enjoy it. In fact I have a silhouette cameo too! I just say cricut as that’s more common. The Cameo works great though and I’ve had it several years and move it to multiple houses at this point. I’ve done a monarch butterfly from the side, I think there might be a picture on my IG account @lisarilandceramics if you want to take a look. Have fun!!
Best video ever❤❤thank you! I must try this.
Best comment ever!!! *happy dance* give it a try for sure, maybe start with a simple design 😊
Beautiful pattern and process. Also, that mug looks so comfortable to use!
Thank you so much! It really is a goal of mine to make very comfy mugs 😊
Those turned out so pretty!good job,thanks for sharing ☕️💕
You’re very welcome! Thank you for the kind words 😊
Stunning
Thank you so much!!
Great job…enjoyed the video.
Thank you so much!!!
Awesome video, Lisa! Love this technique! I have that Amazon apron. I love it! You have a seriously clean studio! Lovely! I will try this in the new year when I am less busy with production. They are so beautiful and I thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so so much! I do try to keep it pretty clean but it certainly helps that I’m not a production potter, I’m certain if I was it wouldn’t be nearly so tidy 😂 so glad you enjoyed the video!
I love your dragon fly! That's so cool. I want to try it!
Thank you!!! Give it a try for sure it’s a fun, maybe tedious, surface technique to play with 😊
❤LOVE! I am trying to figure out where to start! I love the videos of glass fusing, and I love this! I used to take my kids to pottery classes to make Christmas gifts. Now, I would love to have a workshop.
Yay! Thank you so much for watching. Your own workshop is definitely the best happy place, best of luck in getting one!
I'm so doing this!!
Yeah!! Have fun!
Absolutely love these pieces, and you made it so easy to follow, thanks so much, have now subscribed and looking forward to seeing your other videos!
Awe Kerry thank you so so much that means the world to me! So glad you enjoyed and found it easy to follow, I was a little worried it was too complicated.
Beautiful! Looks like the perfect mug, I would love to buy one from you.
Thank you so so much! If I start selling I will certainly let my new TH-cam friends like you know first!!
I'm Christina from San Diego. Now we're met🫱🫲Don't get to excited but I subscribed lol.. Great video. I just plain like you. Your kindness comes through ❤
*HAPPY DANCE* Great to meet you Christina! I’ve spent a fair bit of time in San Diego, what a lovely place! Thank you so much for subscribing and the kind words :)
Awesome!! Maybe some day I’ll give it a try but then I’d need to spend money on a cricut!
Something for the future! There are a lot of other things you can do with a circuit so that makes the expense easier to justify 😂
Subscriber 342 here, this is such a cool idea.
Nice to meet you.
I'll be glad to see what else you have been up to.
So great to meet you too!! Thank you so much for subscribing, I’m excited to share more. I love your profile pic BTW :)
Neat!! I’m # 343!!! I can’t wait to be able to look back and say “I remember when she had less than 500 subscribers!! Now look!!”
@@ThestuffthatSaralikes YAY for 343! I can’t believe how supportive everyone is, I’m so excited to keep making videos. I hope I can continue to keeping you all entertained with studio shenanigans :)
@@Lisa.Riland awe, thanks. i do a lot of cartoony sharpie artwork, this one i tweaked on Procreate afterwards. it's new so you are the first person to notice.
@@ThestuffthatSaralikes i'm pretty sure she is well on her way. geez, i remember when she only had 341 subs!
Oh my gosh, this looks wonderful! I am going to try this technique but not sure I have the guts (or patience) to make my own decal. But I do think I see a decal purchase in my future :-) Have you ever used purchased decals for this same effect? Also, are these your homemade glazes or a retail product? And finally, do you use regular glaze or underglaze for this?
I want to thank you for joining the TH-cam community. I’m not sure how I found you but I’ve watched all of your videos and am so inspired by you ❣️
I haven’t purchased decals, but I’m sure the would work, the only trick is getting the right positive or negative of the image that you want. Since I use this as more of a sticky stencil, it might be hard to find the decal that you want. However, I have used decals themselves as the ‘resist’ so you can use them, apply your glaze and then peal them off and you have your image (just like if you used wax resist), that’s a fun technique too and I’ll try to show it on an upcoming video because it is a simpler design, but also aesthetically very cool. I do formulate my glazes but no reason you couldn’t do the same thing with commercial glazes and the black outline is in fact an underglaze that is purchased. I have several ideas on how to play with underglazes and stencils more too so stick around :) I’m thrilled to be in the community thank you so much for all the positive comments it makes my little maker heart soar!
Very nice might have to buy a circut machine someday , Start dancing lol
Yes!!! I’m out in public and still dancing 😆thank you so much for the comment. There is a lot you can do with a circuit so definitely worth the investment 😊
Wow! Wow! Wow! I love dragonflies and you truly showed a labor of love. Therapeutic for sure. I don’t have that artistic talent nor a kiln😊 so means will sadly not trying your idea. The elk looks nice also. Shall look at more of your videos. Is the stencil available for purchase as a svg?
Your words are so kind, thank you so very much!! I honestly don’t feel like I have the artistic talent myself, but I’m a maker for sure. The dragonfly I actually traced off of a photo I took of one on my fence! The Elk I used AI to help design too. Hope you enjoy other videos as well, I will look into selling the stencils maybe, I’m afraid those two are quite tedious so folks may not enjoy but I have made others that are easier too. I think it could be easy to provide the digital downloads I just haven’t explored it yet.
Beautiful mug. I'm looking forward to seeing some more of your videos. Just one question... do you normally leave the rim of your mug without glaze if you are dipping in one go? I don't really understand how you get a crisp line between the inside glaze and the outside glaze.
Thank you so much for the question, in my next video I’ll show the first part of my glazing process for this style and explain better. If I’m dipping the whole mug in one go, or one glaze, I don’t do the wax on the rim. But I do prefer having a nice glossy glaze inside and more of a matte glaze outside so I use the wax to prevent them from over lapping. It takes a little practice but stay tuned and I’ll cover it in more detail soon 😊
@@Lisa.Riland thank you so much looking forward to it
So you will use underglaze on bisque fire and then glaze over that? Also, can you show the rim thing? People always talk about this but I don’t understand how the wax resist then comes off so you can glaze the rim.
Thank you for the questions, in the next video I’m hoping to answer and clarify how I glaze the inside and do the wax rim, but essentially the rim on my mugs are unglazed, I don’t try to remove the wax it just burns off. As my claybody is white it blends in with the white matte glaze on the outside
It looks great. Hard to focus as I kept looking at all the pretty items on the shelves behind you. 😁
Awe thank you! I really need to get some of that bisqueware glazed and find homes for the other pieces as I’m running out of shelf space. 🫤
Wow! BEAUTIFUL. ? You mention waxing rim after glazing the inside, ? Then how do you glaze rim when glazing outside of cup when wax is on rim?
Thank you so much!! I’ve gotten a couple questions on this so in the next video I’m going to show exactly what I do!
“If I was a potter I probably would make any money because I’d how long my designs take”
I would pay £100-140 for that mug, knowing it’s hand made.
I am so flattered! Thank you for sharing that, you are too kind. Maybe I should start selling my work one day ☺️
Oh my! I would purchase both of them! Is that possible?
Oh I am so flattered! Unfortunately I’m not setup yet to sell but I hope to get a website up and running by the end of the year and maybe then. I’ll definitely share here on TH-cam first!
I've recently watched someone who does Curda Seca imagery (Anna's Clay House). This technique appears to be very similar. If one were to add the oil to the underglaze before applying to the stencil, allowing the underglaze to dry before removing the stencil, might the same results be achieved? Just found your channel and am enjoying it very much.
Oh very interesting, I’m not at all familiar with Curda Seca, but I’ll look up Anna’s Clay House soon! I’ve never added oil to underglaze but it sounds very intriguing! Thank you so much I’m glad you are enjoying my videos!
Isn't it a great technique, Ana! Along the same line as your wonderful work!
What white glaze do you use for your mugs?
It’s actually a cone 6 matte white glaze I formulated. I’m working on a website and will post the recipe, I don’t have a cone 10 version though so depends on what you fire to if it will work.
I can’t find the transfer sticky sheets in the list of equipment you use 😢
I’m so sorry, I went to find it again and it’s no longer being sold 😥 however, I bought a different one I’m going to test in the next video and will link it if it’s any good. Otherwise the stuff you can get at the craft store works, if just a little more finicky.
Can you share the Amazon link for the transfer paper you use please?
You know what, I went to find it on Amazon and I couldn’t! But I just ordered a different one that I’m going to test and if it’s as good I’ll send you a note with a link!
😊@@Lisa.Riland
Thanks for sharing your process - and yes, that’s waaaaayyy to complex for me. I’m too impatient, but glad you are not.
I totally get it! I’ll share some simpler designs soon too, and I love just a lovely glaze with no specific designs just as much too! Glad you enjoyed 😊
Libelula = dragon fly.
I’m curious what language?
I love your video but could you please remove the music from the parts where you talk. It make it harder to focus on what you are saying and it make it harder to hear you.
Oh will do, thank you so much for letting me know!
