1. Check the ware over for blemishes and if present sand gently with 100-grit sandpaper to remove. Proceed to damp sponge ware to remove any fired dust and to condition the piece for decorating.
2. Place about 1½ ounces of Kings Blue into a paper cup. If the color is extremely thick, thin with a few drops of water. Mix with a palette knife.
3. Using the Soft Fan, apply three flowing coats of the Kings Blue over the entire piece, inside and out. However, do not apply color to the bottom of the piece. Allow the underglaze to dry thoroughly.
4. Cut out the pattern for ease of use.
5. Using the pattern, the White Saral and red pen, trace the pattern onto the ware. The Saral will burn away during firing. (Note: if the Saral still appears after the first firing it will disappear during the mid-range firing.)
6. With the #4 and #8 Pointed Round, careful apply three coats of the China White to all of the leaves. The China White is opaque and will block out the underneath color of Kings Blue. Be sure each coat of the China White is dry before proceeding onto the next coat.
7. Place the following EZ-Strokes on the palette: Yellow Orange, Irish Green, Leaf Green and Ivy Green. If extremely thick add a few drops of water and mix with Palette Knife.
8. Complete leaves as follows:
   1. Smoothly cover the white basecoat with a smooth application of Irish Green. Allow to set.
   2. Using either the Rounds or the Shader begin to shade and highlight the leaves. Fully load the desired brush with Irish Green and side load with Yellow Orange for highlighting. Use Leaf and Ivy Green for shading. Blend the desired colors on the palette and apply to each leaf following its contours. For best results, apply color smoothly and remove heavy ridges of color.
   3. Be sure and darken the areas where a leaf overlaps another with Ivy Green.
9. Place Cobalt Jet Black on the palette and thin. Fully load the #2 Detail Liner and proceed to outline the leaves and add broken vein accents to each leaf. The outlining will define which leaf over-laps the other.
10. Using the Green Designer Liner, carefully apply stems to the Lily of the Valley. Apply the stems to one third of the nesting bowl and allow to dry, before proceeding to the next third. It is very easy to smear the fresh wet lines.
11. While the Green Designer Liner is drying, place Pure White French Dimensions on the palette. Add an equal amount of White E-Z Stroke to the French Dimensions. Mix with palette knife.
12. Using the #0 Detail fully loaded, apply a generous coat of the Pure White/White mix to each of the Lily of the Valley flowers. Again, work in thirds around the piece. When the color has set apply a second coat. The flowers should appear raised.
13. Tap in dots streaming down from the flowers here and there throughout the design. These are very small and can be grouped together.
14. Thin the Pure White/White mix with a few drops of water. Fully load the #2 Detail Liner with this thinned mix. Accent the green stem with a highlight of this white. One coat is sufficient, and the highlights are randomly applied.
15. Apply a thin wash of Yellow Orange to the very top of each flower using the #0 Detail.
16. Go back to the Green Designer Liner and place a tiny dot where the flower connects to the stem.
17. To set color, fire the ware to shelf cone 04.
18. Damp sponge the ware to remove any fired dust and to condition the piece for glazing.
19. Place Zinc Clear into a paper cup and if extremely thick, thin with water.
20. With #8 Soft Fan, apply three smooth flowing coats of glaze over piece, except the bottom of the ware. Be sure to allow color drying time between each coat.
21. When dry fire to shelf cone 6 with a ten-minute hold.

An Important Note

1. This project can be completed as written with low-fire white earthenware. However, there are a few minor changes.
2. 1. Earthenware greenware or 04 Bisque may be used.
3. 2. To set painted color, fire to cone 04. (same as before)
4. 3. When final glazing is applied use S-1121 Crystal Clear Brushing.
5. 4. After glazing has dried fire to shelf cone 06.

5. Thin EZ-022 Beige to a milk consistency and fully load the CB-602 Soft Fan with color and flood in the large mushroom and stem, the middle mushroom and stem and only to the tallest mushroom stem.   Add some EZ047 Thundercloud Grey to the Beige color to darken and apply to the tallest mushroom cap.  Let dry.  It is important to let the color dry before continuing with the floating of the other EZ-Strokes over the previous color.  If the color is still damp, the color can be lifted off.
6. Use some of the same darkened Beige/Thundercloud Grey mixture to shade the stems of the mushrooms using CB404 Pointed Round towards the lower sections where they go behind the large mushroom.
7. Slightly thin some EZ055 Brick.  When applying thinned color to shade and area, you can always add more layers of color to darken than trying to remove to heavy of color to an area.   Load the CB-404 Pointed Round with water and tip the brush with the thinned color.   Apply it to the sides of the mushrooms to give dimension.  While the color is still wet, rinse the brush, reload it with water and soften the inner edges of the color.  Shade the mushrooms stems in the same manner.  The shading is darker where the stems go behind the larger mushroom.   Under the large mushroom, shade the left side and up under the cap.   Shade the bottom edges of the mushrooms in an uneven manner.   Let dry.
8. Use CB110 Liner to apply thinned EZ47 Thundercloud Grey to the gills on the middle mushroom.
9. To add depth to the bottom edges of the mushrooms use EZ055 Brick and further darken the indentations with thinned EZ010 French Brown.   Add some detail to the stems with both colors.
10. To the spots in the mushroom caps apply very thin EZ055 Brick and thin EZ034 Orange.   Darken with more thinned EZ055 Brick and EZ010 French Brown.
11. Use a damp Silk Decorating Sponge (not the Synthetic Sponge) loaded with EZ018 Chartreuse tipped with EZ042 Teal to pounce in the grass areas near the mushroom stems and the towards the right side of the ground.   Rinse the sponge and load with some thinned EZ055 Brick to sponge in the two lower left areas of the ground.
12.  The stems to the ferns are thinned EZ071 Dark Olive using CB110 Liner.  To paint in the leaves to the fern use EZ018 Chartreuse to the smaller leaves towards the top of the ferns.  As you move down on painting the leaves use EZ003 Irish Green and towards the bottom leaves, use thinned EZ028 Leaf Green.  You can vary the strength of the color and intersperse some thinned EZ071 Dark Olive and thinned EZ042 Teal to give variety the green leaves.
13. Use CB-110 Liner loaded with the EZ018 Leaf Green, EZ071 Dark Olive and EZ042 Teal to paint in the grass blades in the pattern. Vary the height and colors when painting in the grass blades.
14. Stilt and Fire the piece to Shelf Cone 05-06.

5. Apply three coats of FN018 to the bottom section using a fan brush, allowing the glaze to dry between coats.
6. Once all three sections are dry, lay the clay carbon paper down over the tile with the “Neon” word pattern over the top and trace with a pencil.
7. Remove the carbon paper and pattern.
8. Trace over the “Neon” words with the detail liner brush and wax resist.
9. Once the wax resist has dried, cover the whole tile with one layer of EL120 coming right up next to the wax lines.
10. After the first layer has dried add a second layer of EL120, but back away from the lines about a quarter inch.
11. When the second layer has dried, add the third layer by backing off another quarter inch. These stepped layers will create a haze effect around the neon letters.
12. Allow to dry.
13. Stilt and fire to cone 06.

VARIATIONS AND ADAPTATIONS: The harder you press with the detail liner brush and wax resist, the wider your line will be for the neon color to show through. Use the detail liner brush with a bit of water to wipe off any glaze that gets on top of the wax lines.

1. Begin with a properly-fired shelf cone 04 bisque tile. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove dust.

2. Randomly apply large dots of SC-6 Sunkissed, SC-74 Hot Tamale, and SC-75 Orange-A-Peel and lay the cling wrap over the top.

3. Smoosh the color around under the cling wrap with your fingers to mix and marble the colors. Try to eliminate large puddles of glaze.

4. Remove the cling wrap and immediately lay your feathers over the wet glaze. Press them slightly to help them stick down.

   Note: if your glaze has dried or your feathers aren’t sticking, you can lightly wet the feathers with water as you apply them.

5. With your sponge, sponge a bit more color over the top of the feathers to help seal them down. Rinse sponge.

6. Allow to dry.

7. Sponge FN-9 Black over the top of the whole tile.

8. Allow the black to dry, then sponge another layer on top. You should see almost no color coming through the black.

9. Peel the feathers off the tile.

10. Fire to cone 06.

Adaptations: Instead of using a sponge, use a Soft Fan brush or paper towels to dab the glaze on to the tile. Allow the first coat of

brushed glaze to dry and add a second coat. While the second coat is still wet, arrange your feathers on the tile (if the feathers are a

little tough to work with, this technique also works well with other found objects like pieces of lace or string.) Finally, apply a third coat

using the same colors and continue following the directions. Black glaze may also be brushed onto the tile rather than sponged.

1. Check the bisque ware over for any blemishes. If any are present gently sand with 100-grit Sandpaper.
2. Damp sponge ware to remove any fired dust and to condition the piece for decorating.
3. Place one ounce of Baby Blue in one of the paper cups and a similar amount of Sand in another paper cup. Add a few drops of water, if needed and mix with Palette Knife. The Fundamentals need to be a cream like consistency.
4. To the stem and under side of the Mushroom, apply three smooth coats of the Sand using the #8 Soft Fan. Bring up to the curved outer edge of the mushroom’s cap. Allow to set between coats.
5. To the cap of the Mushroom, apply three coats of Baby Blue with the #8 Soft Fan. Bring the Baby Blue downward overlapping in a feathered manner over the Sand. Allow to set between coats.
6. For best result allow to dry thoroughly.
7. Cut the butterfly pattern apart to easily trace on the butterflies.
8. Randomly apply the butterflies onto the mushroom cap over the Baby Blue, using the provided patterns, clay carbon and red pen.
9. Using the leaf pattern as a guide, sketch in the vine like leaf design over the stem and in between the traced butterflies using the #2 Pencil.
10. As needed place the EZ-Strokes on the page protector palette and if color is extremely thick, thin with water or Thin ‘n Shade. Mix with Palette Knife.
11. The butterflies are completed with Light Blue, Blue Turquoise, Dutch Blue, Midnight Blue and Cobalt Jet Black using the #4 or #6 Round and #2 Detail Liner.
12. Using the Round of choice fully load with Light Blue, side load with Blue Turquoise and on the same side pull the brush through the Dutch Blue. Blend on clean area of palette. Working from the outer edge of wings to the body, tip, press and lift the blue tones over the wings. The narrower wings will need two strokes and the wider wings three to four strokes. Reload the Round as needed in the same manner each time. Note: keep the darker Dutch Blue tone to upper and outer edges of the wings. Also, as color is applied go back and blend and smooth out any ridges of color. Wings should appear soft and blended.
13. Fully load the #2 Detail Liner with slightly thinned Midnight Blue. Hold the Liner straight up, outline the wings with flowing Liner work. Pull in some shading lines over wings, from the body out and from the narrow tips of the wings inward. These lines should be very fine and of varying lengths pulled from one point.
14. Fully load the #2 Detail Liner with thinned Cobalt Jet Black and press, pull and lift the bodies in place. Work from the neck to tapered tail. Tip and press the butterflies’ heads in place with a teardrop stroke. Tip of brush is placed on the neck and the stroke is pressed in place. Holding the brush straight up, pull out a few fine detail lines to the wings, pull out two feelers from the head and add legs to the butterflies.
15. There are dots on the wings in White, these are added later.
16. The leaves are a pressure stroke using Irish Green, Leaf Green, Ivy Green and detailed with Royal Blue Green.
17. Fully load the #4 or #6-Pointed Round with Irish Green, side load with Leaf Green and tip in Ivy Green. Working from the base of leaf outward, press firmly, pull and lift off to create the leaf in one stroke. Note the more pressure on the brush as the stroke is started will generate a larger leaf.
18. All the leaves are completed in the same manner, however smaller leaves have less pressure applied to the brush. Reload as needed.
19. To the Ivy Green add a few drops of Royal Blue Green, thus making a slightly darker shade of green.
20. With the #2 Liner fully loaded in Ivy Green and side loaded in Royal Blue Green mix, pull in the flowing vine stem work. Proceed to outline the leaves in stylized flowing strokes and add a center vein to each.
21. Using the Pure White French Dimension, press in small descending dots along the outer edge of the butterflies’ wings. To achieve uniform dots, hold the French Dimension bottle at a 45-degree angle to the ware and be sure the nip touches the ware.
22. Fire the piece to shelf cone 04. Thus, setting the color and maturing the French Dimension.
23. Damp sponge the fired ware to condition the piece for glazing.
24. With #8 Soft Fan apply three flowing coats of Crystal Clear Brushing to entire piece.
25. Stilt and fire to shelf cone 06.

1. Check the vase over for any blemishes. If present, lightly sand to remove using the 100-grit sandpaper.
2. Damp sponge the ware down to remove any fired dust and to condition the piece for decorating. To condition and clean the inside of vase pour a small amount of water into the vase. Quickly swirl the water around and pour out any remaining water.
3. Place approximately one ounce of Blue Green in the paper cup. If needed add water or Thin ‘n Shade to thin to a cream like consistency.
4. With a water dampened #8 Soft Fan, apply three coats of Blue Green to the entire outside of vase and to the inside lip. For the inside apply color about 2’’ inside the neck. Allow to dry between coats.
5. Set aside to dry thoroughly.
6. Using the provided pattern as a guide, lightly sketch the flowers and leaf pattern over the ware with a standard pencil. If you feel more comfortable with a traced pattern, use White Saral instead of Clay Carbon. Clay Carbon will not show up on such a dark base color. Cover the entire outside of vase with the design. (See the photograph for placement)
7. The design work is completed using Pure White French Dimensions. Some tips, when using are as follows:
   1. Thoroughly shake and squeeze the bottle.
   2. Use the product at room temperature.
   3. Squeeze a small amount out onto a paper towel to ensure the right consistency is flowing from the nip.
   4. If color does not leave the bottle easily, the French Dimension may need some stirring. Use a wooden skewer to stir the product deep inside the bottle.
   5. To apply the French Dimension, hold the bottle at a 45-degree angle and gently apply pressure to the bottle with thumb and index finger.
   6. The nip should touch the ware as the color is applied.
   7. The angle is very important when adding the dots. If dots are applied with the bottle at 90-degrees to the surface, they will be more pointed and sharp.
   8. Periodically wipe the nip to remove any unwanted color that will accumulate on the outer edge of the nip.
   9. Work on one area at a time, allow that area to dry before moving on around the vase. It is very easy to smear the wet French Dimension.
8. Outline flower petals first, then pull in the leaves with a center vein. (Complete 3 or 4 flowers then allow to dry.)
9. After the petals and leaves are applied, add the tiny dots for the center of the flowers.
10. Throughout the background add dots in groups of three.
11. Add tiny dots around the top edge of the fluted vase.
12. Fire ware to a shelf cone 04. Note ware does not need to be stilted since Fundamentals will not stick to the shelf when fired.
13. Damp sponge ware after firing to remove any fired dust and to condition the piece for glazing.
14. Pour a small amount of Crystal Clear Brushing in to a paper cup and thin with water to a light cream consistency. Roll the inside of the vase and drain off excess. Wipe back any drips or runs from the outside of ware.
15. Apply 3 coats of the Crystal Clear Brushing to the outside of vase with the #8 Soft Fan. Glaze needs to dry between coats.
16. Stilt ware and fire to shelf cone 06.
17. Remove stilt marks with Dremel Tool or Stilt Stone.
