Painting Clay Pots

I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on how to paint clay pots and how to seal them after painting.

Thank you,
Di

I use acrylic paint and a water proof sealer. I am making clay pot garden buddies and this works for me. matsnana45 (06/30/2005)

Di, seal the pots before you paint on them, so that future moisture doesn't come through the absorbent clay and create mold under your painting. You can coat the pots with a water based sealer, paint with acrylic or gouache, and then seal with water based varnish. (07/28/2007)
