Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. On the DSS-0160 Vintage Holiday screen, locate the three ornaments. Draw an outline around them in permanent marker. Cut them out with excess screen around the edges.
  3. Squeeze around 1 TBS of SC-36 Irish Luck and SC-87 Ruby Slippers onto the palette (in separate areas). Add a pinch of AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to each. Mix with a palette knife until they become the consistency of peanut butter. You may need to add more silkscreen medium or glaze.
  4. Place the screens on the tray one at a time. While holding the screen firmly in place, take a small amount of premixed silkscreen medium (either the red or the green), and gently rub in circles starting in the center and working outward.
  5. Repeat step #4 until the tray is covered in ornaments.
  6. Use SG-403 Red, SG-405 Green and SG-409 Bright Green to add lines and dots to the ornaments. You can also add bows to the tops of the ornaments.
  7. Using the Soft Fan with SC-87 Ruby Slippers, apply 3 coats to the back of the tray. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  8. Using the Soft Fan with SG-704 Speckta-Clear Peppermint, apply 2 coats to the front of the tray. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  9. Fire to cone 06.
