This is very pretty. I just thought I'd mention that when Classic inks are used, it will not be permanent and will eventually fade. For durability, it's best to use the Craft inks (and heat set to make permanent), StazOn or acrylic paints mixed with re-inkers. If you plan to use the pots outside, it is imperative to coat the pot with a spray sealer, or eventually the images will peel from being exposed to the elements.

Just wanted to add that the colors you see here are actually bold brights, though they ended up looking softer. I did seal the outside with a matte sealer - but did not intend for this to be used outside - more like a candy dish or pen holder.
Thanks for the comments!
