Only rarely do I find a mold or cutter that fits my needs. It's simple to make your own 'stencil' from medium thick mylar. I draw it first on paper, tape it to the backside of the mylar. Using an X-Acto knife, I cut through the mylar in one continuous unbroken line. When finished, I have a negative and positive of the design. Then with a thin pin tool that I've made from a REAL pin, I place the stencil on the clay and cut around its outline. I use the same process for attaching. When you can't buy what you need, hell-- give it a shot and just make it!
That’s great Pamela! Thanks for sharing your process. I’ve seen videos on how to make your own, I haven’t had the time to make them myself. I know a lot of people use cricut or other stencil makers.
Absolutely beautiful 🩷
Thank you so much Rachel!💞
You are so talented
Thank you so much! That’s so kind of you. 🫶🏻
Thanks for sharing your process! Have you tried using cling wrap over the clay when you use the cookie cutter type mold? It may help with the release, but it also softens the edge just a tad. I love your style!
Thank you! Good point! I have used it before, but I’d forgotten.😂
I will do that next time!🙏🏻💞
What a great video! Thank you so much.
You’re so welcome Michele!💞
Can you tell me what the glazes are on the body of the mug? Absolutely stunning
It’s 2x Mayco Norse Blue on the top half. The bottom half it’s 2x Coyote Fairy Rose and inside of mug and a little on the rim, overlapping. Then I applied 1x of Spectrum Pearl white on the top half.

@@anasclayhouse thank you!
Do you happen to know if you can underglaze, for example, a sunset on a leather hard surface, scrape off small areas and then wet that scraped area of the clay enough to score and slip recently made sprigs onto the surface? Do you think they would actually adhere if the areas were made soft enough? That would make the background areas so much nicer and tidier. Thanks for any info. I have arthritis in my hands and find that trying to butt underglaze background up against the sprigs is very difficult.
Hi Maryann yes you can and you don’t even have to scrape off the underglaze, just score and slip. I’ve done it and it works.👍🏻
@@anasclayhouse Great, I will give that a try!! Thanks!!
@@maryannrogers8550 you’re welcome!👍🏻
