Instructions

  1. Use a moistened Synthetic Sponge to wipe down the ware to remove any dust.
  2. Optional Step: If the piece will be exposed to the environment. Thin some S-2101 Crystal Clear Brushing in a Plastic Cup to a milk consistency. Pour the thinned glaze into the piece. While working quickly, rotate the piece for full coverage. Pour out excess glaze and allow to drain and dry.
  3. On a tile thin some SC-48 Camel Back with water to a milk consistency. Apply one coat over the entire piece. Let dry. Use a damp Synthetic Sponge to wipe back/antique the piece. Strive for an even color to the antiquing. Make sure the areas around the face are even and crisp. Let dry.
  4. On a tile thin the remaining colors to a milk consistency with water. Apply 1-2 coats of the following colors to the designated areas using a Pointed Round sized for the area and keeping the color even:
    • SC-20 Cashew Later to face and arms.
    • SC-25 Cracker Jack to hair. Paint in the eyebrows as well using CB-110 Liner. Paint in the eyes with SC-15 Tuxedo.
    • SC-52 Toad-ily Green to flower stem.
    • SC-72 Grape Jelly to the petticoat.
    • SC-83 Tip Taupe to the wings.
    • SC-70 Pink-A-Dot to the cheeks. Make the color darker on the cheekbone fading out to nothing over the flesh area. Paint the flower petals on the head with 2-3 coats for color saturation.
  5. Do not stir or shake the glaze. Use CB-602, CB-604 Soft Fans or CB-404 Pointed Round to apply 2-3 coats of CG-998 Pink Pixie to the entire dress excluding the petticoat. There should be few crystals in the glaze mix as you apply the color. For the third coat, shake and stir the crystals into the glaze. Apply 1 coat of crystals from the bottom edge of the skirt upwards trailing the crystals to nothing about halfway up the dress.
  6. Apply 1 coat of S-2101 Crystal Clear Brushing over the other areas of the piece excluding the dress area with the crystal glaze.
  7. Stilt and Fire the piece to Shelf Cone 05-06.
