Alison: Love how you are not afraid to experiment and put it out there for us to see. It’s like we’re watching you over your shoulder (which we are) but without the camera on. An opps or two but nice you shared with us. Fun to learn with you. Love the stencil design. I too have a Silhouette but haven’t made this kind of stencil. Guess I’ll have to try.
Awesome video!! Thank you! I use the iron on vinyl and create silkscreen stencils on my cricut which are reusable. They work with powder (I use an embroidery hoop to hold it slightly off the glass surface.) as well as thickened enamel (with the silkscreen directly on the glass) It works on my pottery as well. Thank you for sharing.
I enjoyed the video - this is also how I discover new ways of doing things. I work with enamel - in my case it's enamel on copper/silver. When I use a stencil I first spray hair spray in the areas I want the enamel powder to stick, then sift on the enamel powder. The powder will stick to the areas that have the hair spray and the rest will fall off. I am not sure if that would work the same way on glass but I thought it worth mentioning.
When stenciling with paints use a pouncer sponge (has a handle), makes it much easier and the paint sticks but doesn’t get all over. Hope that helps. Love your videos!
I haven’t finished video or seen the results. But wanted to suggest looking into a perfect medium pen from ranger. That might work better for stencils than the pad :)
Nice video, really helpful and informative. The powder enamel was a failure in terms of how good the image was, but it definitely has potential, since the shine finish was nice and would probably transmit light through the least I'm guessing...

Thank you! Let me know how it works out for you 😁

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try that

Oooo I didn’t even think of using hairspray even though I use it with frit all the time! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!! Will try that
Thanks! Another great journey in our favorite medium.
😊

Cool! I’ll check it out 😁
I have used glass tac or aloe to hold the stencil down.
Thanks for sharing! I’ll have to try that
I love this video! Very, very useful information!
😁😁😁 glad you liked it!
You could use temporary spray glue to hold the stencil in place
Good idea!
This makes me want a cricut/silhouette really badly
I use it a surprising amount haha
@@EquinoxGlass I'm one of those people with too many ideas and not enough time. I thought it would be fun for stickers too!
@@EquinoxGlass Also, thanks for this! I was worried the powder wouldn't work out, but this gives me hope I can play with it and have it work too
@@StephFuses I can relate!

It definitely has its positives, I use it a ton to add little details like eyeballs, etc.
