Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 Bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. For the unicorn planter and mug, slightly thin FN-051 Strawberry, pour inside, turn the pieces to coat, pour out the excess and drain.
  3. For all three unicorn pieces, brush the mane and tail with alternating colors of SC-26 Green Thumb and SC-73 Candy Apple Red. Apply 2-3 Coats with the RB-110 Liner or the CB-106 Script liner.
  4. Shade around the body parts with SC-35 Gray Hare, use RB-106 Script Liner.
  5. For the unicorn planter, use the holly screen from DSS-0162 Holiday Icons.
  6. Place SC-15 Tuxedo on a palette or tile and sprinkle with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium. Using a palette knife mix color and medium to the consistency of thick peanut butter. if the mix is too thin add more AC-310 Silkscreen Medium or if it is too thick add more Stroke & Coat. Too thin of a mixture will bleed under the screen and give you a blurred image. Too thick of a mixture will make it hard for the product to penetrate through the holes in the screen and give blank areas in your screen. Position the screen shiny side down on the piece. Hold in place, starting from the center out, Rub the mixture on the screen with your finger. Lift a corner up to check if you are applying enough color. Remove the screen and wash with water. Do not let the color dry in the screen. this will cause damage to the screen.
  7. Fill in the holly leaves with two coats of SC-26 Green Thumb and the berries with SC-73 Candy Apple Red.
  8. Eyes are SC-30 Blue Dawn, SC-15 Tuxedo, pupil and outline.
  9. Brush the back of the unicorn dish with three coats of FN-051 Strawberry, use RB-144 Soft Fan, brush SG-704 Peppermint over the top of the unicorn dish, Magical is written with SC-15 Tuxedo, use RB-110 Liner, did the mug and unicorn planter in clear, or brush on two coats to the outside of the piece.
  10. Fire to cone 06/05.
