Hi there! Thank you for the great vid! Questions..when sealing the pot prior to painting, do you spray inside and outside? Also if you are only painting the lower portion of a pot, should you still seal the entire pot or just where you will be painting? Lastly, do you seal after painting as well? Thanks! :)

Hi!! I seal the inside and outside. Theoretically just sealing the outside would work, but I generally do both just to make sure no moisture can get through. I don't seal over top of the paint if i'm using an acrylic paint that is self-sealing (like a lot of DecoArt's paints). Have fun painting!!

Great info! I had a bunch of questions rolling around, keeping me from getting started and you answered them all. I think I'll compromise by doing black geometric designs with lots of negative space so I keep as much of the moisture-wicking properties of the terracotta. Thanks!!

Hey, love the pots! Question, clay pots are also great for helping the plant breathe, but I’m unsure if I want to give that up. Is there something you recommend to help keep this factor or is there nothing I can do and it’s either I give that up or not paint it at all.

Pretty much once you paint them you give up that up.

Yep, you definitely give that benefit up. However, I've found that the high absorption of the clay is actually too drying for some plants, so just consider the plant's needs before planting it in a painted, glazed, or plastic pot :)

By using a penetrating sealant that gets absorbed into the clay, the pot should still be breathable. Hope this helps

Thanks for the tutorial. I painted a concrete pot with acrylic paint (navy blue) which came up really well but I wanted to paint a band of rose gold round the bottom. i ordered deco art rose gold metallic paint but i was really disappointed as its not very opaque , very transparent and just looks like a shine rather than paint. I dont think I would achieve the solid colour Im looking for even with multiple layers. Am i doing something wrong? Should I use a spray paint instead?

Hi! I think it depends on the color. I found that Antique Bronze usually took 2-3 coats to get an opaque finish. Definitely more than one coat with the shimmery/shiny colors.

@ByBrittanyG

Yes that's true actually! The terracotta clay is absorbant, which is great for some plants. Painting it will seal the clay, so that removes the "breathing" ability (which is really just the pot soaking in excess water). It's not a big deal for many plants though.
