Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust. 
  2. Use the ruler to mark where the tape will be placed. Make 3 vertical lines with the tape at the 3, 6, and 9 inch mark. Then make one horizontal line with tape going over top the vertical lines at the 3 inch mark on the side of the Rectangle Tray. Tape all 4 sides of the Rectangle Tray to make a border.  
  3. Mix SC006 and SC089 together, 50/50 of both glazes. This will the background color for 4 of the boxes. Glaze 3 coats of paint in every other box. Use a Soft Fan Brush. 
  4. Mix SC065 and SC070 together, 50/50 of both glazes. This will the background color for the other 4 boxes. Glaze 3 coats of paint in every other box. Use a Soft Fan Brush. 
  5. Remove tape while paint is half dry half wet.  
  6. Around all boxes, boarder, and back glaze 3 coats of SP245. Use a Flat Shader for the around the boxes and border, then use a Soft Fan brush to glaze the back. 
  7. Once all glaze is dry, lightly use a pencil to draw different shaped flowers inside of the boxes. 
  8. Use SC006 and SC089 interchangeably to glaze the petals and centers of the flower on top on the SC006 and SC089 mixed boxes. Do 4 coats of glaze for good coverage. Use a Detail Liner Brush.   
  9. Use SC065 and SC070 interchangeably to glazes the peddles and centers of the flower on top on the SC065 and SC070 mixed boxes.  Do 4 coats of glaze for good coverage. Use a Detail Liner Brush. 
  10. Use SC006 and SC089 interchangeably and make the bottom dot the opposite glaze from the peddles of the flower. Once dry, make a smaller dot with the other glaze, on top on the SC006 and SC089 mixed boxes. Use the eraser part of the pencil to make dots.  
  11. Use SC065 and SC070 interchangeably and make the bottom dot the opposite glaze from the peddles of the flower. Once dry, make a smaller dot with the other glaze, on top on the SC006 and SC089 mixed boxes. Use the eraser part of the pencil to make dots.  
  12. Let the glaze try completely and fire to cone 06.
