Using Fishnet Stockings for Pottery Design - UNDERGLAZE PAINTING MADE EASY!

[@annruel1982]

*******Remember, these stockings were made of NYLON. Nylon repels water so it acts as a resist for the underglaze. I tried this with patterned tights, but I quickly realized they were made with cotton. the cotton absorbed the underglaze and I lost all the pattern. Only use stockings made of water repellent material.

[@liaroose4972]

Great idea Ann! And the results are so beautiful. Thanks a lot for your explanation

[@marzadky4934]

You can vanish the cotton ones to make them repellant.

[@annruel1982]

@@marzadky4934 Hi Marzadky. Interesting idea. I wonder if varnishing them would hurt the ability to be elastic and fit tightly over the clay??

I did something similar using a doilie to actually press a lace pattern into the clay, I then used an oxide over the whole piece sponged off the oxide on the raised parts and then when dry sponged on a glaze only to the raised parts of the pattern.
