Instructions

  1. Use the Soft Fan to apply a liberal coat of PC-601 Clear Cascade to the top sections of both pinwheels.
  2. Brush over the Cascade with two liberal coats of CG-753 Sassy Orange for the small pinwheel and CG-756 Firecracker for the large pinwheel. Be sure to apply plenty of crystals.
  3. Use the Soft Fan to apply two coats of EL-128 Wheat to the lower section of the small pinwheel. Apply one liberal coat of Wheat over the Sassy Orange.
  4. Use the same brush to apply two liberal coats of EL-143 Cactus Flower to the lower section of the large pinwheel. Apply one liberal coat of Cactus Flower over CG-756 Firecracker.
  5. While the glazes are wet, fill an AC-220 Detailer Bottle with SG-301 Black Cobblestone, then squirt lines of Cobblestone on top of the pinwheel. Use SC-75 Orange-A-Peel and SG-401 Designer Liner Black in the same manner.
  6. Fuse together in the firing at cone 06.
  7. Use epoxy to glue the wire and beads to the center holes. Cut the 1/2″ copper tube approx. 15″ long, use construction adhesive to adhere to the back.  Cut the 3/4″ tube about 8-9″ ling, this is staked in the ground so that the pinwheel will fit nicely inside of the larger tube.
