My granddaughter Molly, age 4, and I watched your two Flower Pot videos. When you said if you liked this video, give it a thumbs up, she immediately gave it a thumbs up from her seat next to me. She is very literal. I enjoy your videos. Thank you. Linda

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi Linda! Ohhhh, this makes my heart smile! Thank you Molly, you're my kind of people! And how sweet that she watched the videos with you. That's wonderful she's getting exposed to art at a young age. Enjoy your precious time with her. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here!🙌

@alicecowan3499 Год назад

Your videos are my favorite. I think I relate to you the best. I am brand new at doing this too! You make it easy for me to understand 🥰💜

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Alice! Awww, thank you for such kind words! I appreciate it!😊 It's great to hear you're enjoying my videos and getting value from them. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

@roseosullivan6553 3 года назад

Hi, Julie. I love the colours. The white grout makes it pop. Great idea to cover the inside and tape the end. I think a pink flower would be lovely it that pot. Take Care.

@JulieWeilbacher 3 года назад

Hi Rose, love your idea of a pink flowering plant in this pot. So preppy! Thanks for watching!

@cyng8497 2 года назад

Did you mention sealing the inside of you pots as well? I’m thinking of mosaic over some painted pots that I did with unicorn spit that were not fade resistant colors ! happy to have found your videos, Thank you 🐬

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi Cyn G! Yes, I mentioned sealing the inside of the flower pot. Keep creating!🙌

@dreadrogue549 3 года назад

Love the intro

Thanks so much Buddy!

Re-visiting this video, Julie, as I've decided to work on a flower pot. A friend gave me a plant as I was recovering from multiple surgeries over the last couple of months... but of course the plant died (they didn't get the memo that I'm a plant killer). So I want to mosaic the pot and give it back to them as a thank you. It's a white glazed ceramic pot and it dawned on me that I might need to prep it somehow. But I think I'll be using thinset as adhesive, so maybe not? I am thinking thinset and grout and seal the grout afterwards and then just tell them it would probably do best inside or covered (we are in Seattle, afterall haha). Thanks for any tips!

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Erica! I hope you’re feeling better. What a nice friend you have…and are! I’m a recovering plant killer.🤣 You can mosaic onto a glazed ceramic pot using thinset - no prep required. And yes, I would definitely seal the grout as you mentioned. Check out this video on sealing grout: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5JqZU5ucM_k.html. Keep feeling good!🤗

@patriciakerr2486 2 года назад

When removing the tape from the bottom you mentioned finding the last piece of tape. Perhaps make a mark on the last piece of tape with a 1, and a 2 for the next one so you know quickly which way to go.

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi Patricia! That's a GREAT suggestion! Thanks for sharing. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here! 🙌

@sukhvindersahib844 11 месяцев назад

Hi Julie. I love tour videos and they have helped me alot. I have a bamboo planter want to do indoors plants but I want to do something with mosiac and pepples etc. Also can I skip the grout and if yes what should I do. Thankyou

@DenekiLakes Год назад

My flower pots will be outside in Arizona with temps up to 120 degrees. Temps can also freeze in the winter, 28 degrees. Both temps F. Do I need special adhesives or grouts for these temps if pots are ouside year round? Thank you.

@FoppeCreative 2 года назад

Julie, Thank you so much for these tutorials. I've just retired and decided to use my design skills in a new medium. Your videos "demystified" the process and gave me the confidence to tackle this. I just grouted my 4th pot using chocolate colored grout and it looks great. While my first pot was grouted with black, it felt a tad stark. I have a question for you...how do you mark off designed areas on pots. Right now, I'm measuring with strip of heavy paper and make marks. Then, I freehand the marks together to get my edge. Is there a better way? Thanks

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi Sue! Congrats on your retirement! 🎉 Great to hear my videos are helping on your new(!) mosaic journey. Chocolate grout is one of my FAVORITE grout colors. For marking off you came up with a great method. Another idea would be to use a seamstress tape measure, although I like your idea better. Rulers are too rigid, especially when there's a rim involved. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

@@JulieWeilbacher Thank you Julie!

@j.c.7555 2 года назад

Hi Julie...I was wondering if you are using thinset for this pot and if so why instead of regular grout? Thank you so much for all your very deteriled info. I am really new and learning.

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi JC! I used fortified thinset-mortar as the adhesive and fortified grout as the grout. You can grout with thinset-mortar as well, I just didn't because I have a lot of grout to use up. Keep creating!

@mishacolibra3132 Месяц назад

What kind of a cutter is that? I have a bunch of broken crockery to cut up into mosaics

@roxyboldesuc12 Год назад

Thank you for sharing your knowledge ! Would you put a sealer on a countertop mosaic in a bathroom?

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Roxanne! Great to hear you're enjoying my videos. For a countertop bathroom I would seal the grout, or use a grout that doesn't require any sealer. There are a couple on the market. But because it's near a water source, I would do something to protect it for longevity. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

@teec. Год назад

How long do I have to wait to grout? I want to be able to complete the process within 2 hours. Is that possible?

@Lily_and_River Год назад

Thank you for these video's! Is a sealant still necessary when I would use Mapei grout? It says it's water and mold resistant.

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Lily&River! Awww, it's great to hear you're enjoying my videos.😊 If I'm making a mosaic for outdoors, I always seal it regardless of my grout or cement-based adhesive says on the label. I live in Miami where it's super humid year-round. You may be able to get away without sealing where you live....plus, it depends on what the substrate is. If I've spent so much time on the mosaic, I'll invest a little more time by sealing. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

@RandyRicketts Год назад

Julie, I've created my flower pot and like the mosaic design. As a beginner, Im not very good at grouting. What can I do to smooth our rough grout on the bottom and under the lip of the top of the pot. Thank you.

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Randy! This video will help: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IrKEgwpGr14.html. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥

@daliahanafy734 2 года назад

Can you please say what did you use for sealing? Thank you

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi Dalia! Here's a video link for how I seal mosaic art. All of the items I use in the video, including the sealer, are linked below in the description. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here!

@gregc3312 2 года назад

How about using a Flex seal as a sealer?

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Greg! I don't have any experience using Flex Seal as a sealer. I stick with grout sealer and it's worked out well. I think this video might help you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5JqZU5ucM_k.html. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here!🔥

@pmarlowe1638 2 года назад

Do you ever make a mosaic saucer to match?

@JulieWeilbacher 2 года назад

Hi P Marlowe! You certainly can. You’d just have a more shallow dish to collect any run-off water from your plant. You would go about it the same way you would a flower pot…use fortified thin set mortar as your adhesive, and you could even use it for the grout. Glad you’re here!

@naomieverett402 Год назад

Link to fortified group is broken. What product do you recommend?

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Naomi! Thanks for the heads-up!🙌 The link is fixed. LOTS of colors to choose from. Keep creating and I'm glad you're here!🔥

@jacquelinerobin7732 3 года назад

Our there non pores clay pots?

@JulieWeilbacher 3 года назад

Hi Jacqueline! Yes, I've seen terra cotta pots in black in addition to red, rose, dark gray, light gray, dark brown, etc. Check online ('black terra cotta pots') and you'll find lots of beautiful shapes, shades, and sizes. Good luck! Glad you're here!

@danettehunter7385 Год назад

I tried to create a fun Mosaic on my terracotta pot and it looks terrible. I'm trying to add a picture of it.

@JulieWeilbacher Год назад

Hi Danette! Tiling on a curved surface takes practice. Keep at it! If you love the design you came up with then try it again. Experiment. The beauty of mosaic art is that it isn't perfect. Keep creating and I'm so glad you're here!🔥
