Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 Bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan with CG-997 Sea Foam, apply 3 coats to the top of the hat. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the Script Liner and Soft Fan with SC-10 Teal Next Time, apply 3 coats to the rim of the hat and inside the hat. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  4. Using the Script Liner with SC-16 Cotton Tail, apply 3 coats to the beard. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  5. Squeeze about 1 TBS of SC-99 Char-ming onto the palette. Thin with water. Use the Dagger Brush to float the thinned glaze over the beard.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SC-20 Cashew Later, apply 3 coats to the nose and hands. Allow the glaze to dry between coats. Highlight with SC-2 Melon-Choly.
  7. Using the Script Liner and Soft Fan with SC-23 Jack O’ Lantern, apply 3 coats to jacket and inside of the container. Shade with SC-88 Tu Tu Tango.
  8. Use the circle punches to punch 10-20 circles in the paper. Cut them out with scissors to make a negative pattern. Dip each pattern in water and stick to the jacket. Using the Script Liner with SC-23 Jack O’ Lantern, apply 1 coat over each circle to make sure it sticks.
  9. Using the Script Liner with SC-9 Jaded, apply 2 coats over each circle. Allow glaze to dry between coats. Remove the patterns before the glaze is completely dry.
  10. Using the Detail Liner with SC-15 Tuxedo, outline the details on the container.
  11. Fire to cone 06.
