    A "strap wrench" is a great way to open all those jars I saw you struggling with. My arthritis makes it hard to open even easy to open jars so I have one in my kitchen and my studio/office. Hope this tip will help you as well. Very interesting techniques - love the pot!

I looked on Amazon and found one that looks like the first one that i bought: www.amazon.com/APEX-GROUP-ASIA-DRDL0027-Strap-Wrench/dp/B01IVOMECS/ref=sr_1_15?s=power-hand-tools&ie=UTF8&qid=1525911435&sr=1-15&keywords=strap+wrench Hope this helps you - it was a game changer for me.

Thanks for sharing. I loved your written comments and perseverance with hard to open pots. Cheers Marie ‘downunder ‘

  • @leehuddy6061
    @leehuddy6061 5 років тому

    Such a beautiful piece! I've been working with clay pots for various craft pieces. Painting them with either spray paint or acrylic using a brush. I have soooo wanted to pour paint because it's so beautiful. I don't have the confidence to advance to this but working on it. Then there is the cost of the silicone, floetrol, etc. Not easy when on a fixed income. I think if I view some more of your videos I just might work up the nerve to try. Keep these videos coming! You do such a wonderful job!

    • @kalenaflows4574
      @kalenaflows4574  5 років тому

      Thank you so much Lee ❤ I felt the same way about pouring before I tried. I felt that I had no artistic flair and that there was no way it was as simple as the people described it on UA-cam, that they were editing somehow to make it look easy! Turns out it really is easy, just a touch more time consuming than you see in the video but that's only because of the mixing of the paint.
      It sounds like you're already well on your way with the art you already produce, I would give it a try! The paint is the most expensive start up cost but you have that, silicone is just a spray can of wd40 or similar, for me it cost about $4 from memory and I'm still using the same can I started with. Floetrol is costly but can be substituted for water, this does give you a slightly different result but on a budget, water is an excellent way to start. This way all you need is silicone. 🙂 I hope you give it a try. I'd love to hear back if you do.

  • @melindaostergren4522
    @melindaostergren4522 5 років тому

    Was just wondering if you could use styrofoam sheets under a canvas so you could capture the paint coming off the pot. You’d have to play around with thickness of the foam I think.
    The flat sheets would distribute the weight of the pot and if they’re thick enough that would give you clearance from your work table.
    Hmmm....what to do with the empty spot on the canvas after you moved the pot aside? Maybe saving a bit of paint to pour in the center could work.
    And I’m also thinking you’d probably still have enough paint dripping off a canvas that you’d still have skin for jewelry making.
    I also saw someone make coasters with the drips from her canvas. She used resin to coat the pieces. Looked nifty. I got to thinking about doing a vase, coasters and a canvas or....

    • @kalenaflows4574
      @kalenaflows4574  5 років тому

      Thanks Christine,
      The fire helps to create cell shapes in the paint by burning off the oil in the silicone and also by bringing small air bubbles to the surface through layers of paints. A similar effect well be achieved without heat but the heat accelerates the effect allowing a lot more cells.

    The drippings yourself ready, we should put, the round wooden cup holders down on top of the bank informed straight up and you'd have the pattern on your cup holders. Or put the little small pots underneath to catch the drippings and let it drip off that and see if you can get enough on the little ones from all the droppings.

      Pam Howard the coasters are a great idea! It's certainly worth a try. Using the smaller pots wouldn't get the pattern effect I'm after I don't think as the paint would be too mixed. I use the dried paint skin to make jewellery so I try not to waste any. Is like to try the coasters though. Thank you :)

      Hi, thank you :) I picked up the lazy susan from a $2 shop. They're sometimes difficult to find and are not all the same in terms of how they spin. I've found the glass ones to be the best as they seem to spin more smoothly and quieter than the wooden ones. Worth noting is that I use a piece of melamine under the pots to capture the drips as you can peel the dried paint off that but you can't peel it off glass.

Internally they are sealed with a pot and ornament sealer and externally the combination of floetrol/pva in the paint and an indoor outdoor high gloss varnish, protects the finish.

      In short, I really don't know exactly why, I know I like the crisp pattern I get when using it so perhaps it makes it more difficult for the different colours to mix when it's added. If your unsure about using it, perhaps do some test pours with and without it. Good luck, I hope this helps somewhat.

The biggest pots I've done were for my own garden and stand at around 55cm tall. Basically it's the sort of thing that is somewhat flexible and either made to order or able to be selected from existing stock. Price would be dependent on those factors at times.

    I’ve been enjoying learning from you, but I just had to give this video a thumb’s down. Why? Because the first 6 minutes we just watched you mixing paint. It’s so much nicer when everything is ready to go, including the silicone.
    Then it’s just a few moments to share names and makers of the paints and your mixture ratios.
    I think you’re spot on saying a top shot would be nice; it’s also interesting to see the paint going into a clear cup.
    It’s always fascinating to see the actual pouring and the colors dancing around. Colors came and went as gravity worked on the paint. Thanks for the funky color combination. It’s like magic to see what happens.
    PS. I hope you don’t have to wear that brace too much longer.

      Ada Pedreira the section at the very end when it is on a glass turn table is when it is completed. Dry and varnished. Ready to be sold.

    Kalena, how much would you sell a pot for?

    • @kalenaflows4574
      @kalenaflows4574  6 років тому

      donvaledon1 it depends on the size and style of the pot. If you're interested to personally buy one, plead contact me via my Instagram @kalenaflows and I'd be pleased to discuss prices with you. As a rule of thumb they start at $15 for a small pot and go up from there based on style and size and whether or not a base is included. Thank you for asking 🙂 Kalena

    Very pretty but a colossal waste of paint

      Ann Decker It would certainly be a waste of paint of I didn't do anything with it, however, I create jewellery out of the dried paint skin. This is the reason why I use as much paint as I do else I'd reduce the paint.:)

      Kalena Flows Sorry. I should have realized you must have had plans with all the excess paint

      Ann Decker hard to know though when I don't make mention. I should show pieces I've made from each pour. You've given me a good idea, thank you 😀
