| Ever look down at your mat while practicing yoga and realize it's kinda boring? I hand paint yoga mats. Check em out at www.flowyogamats.etsy.com |

You know, I never have looked down and thought of my mat.
But your work is lovely.
What is the VOC rating of the paint you're using?

| Thanks! I really enjoy painting them. The paint is non toxic, so it has a VOC rating of zero. |

Hey Flowyogamats,
Love your mats!
I am thinking about making something like this available here in Thailand. It is too bad we cannot get you involved, but shipping and importing is cost prohibitive. Maybe we can lease some of your designs or something?
How durable are the designs? Does the paint hold up over time? Does it flake or peal or fade even if mats are rolled and unrolled and washed often? Do you paint any kind of mat, including the usual spongy, blue, PVC ones? What kind of paint is non-toxic and durable?
Thanks for any info. Much appreciated.
Aloha,
Rex |
