Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust. 
  2. Place transfer paper down onto the mug. Place the pattern on top of the transfer paper. Use a pencil to trace the outline of the design.  
  3. Remove the design and transfer paper. The image should appear onto your mug.  
  4. Using the Script Liner, glaze 3 coats to the face and highlight using SC016. 
  5. Using the Script Liner, glaze 3 coats around the face and highlight using SC099. SC099 will also be used for the mouth, nose and hands, which will also need 3 coats of glaze.  
  6. Using the Script Liner, glaze 3 coats of SC002 for the heart eyes, phone, and wavy border on the top.  
  7. On the right and left side of the image draw 3 hearts. For each heart do 3 coats of either SC002, SC042, and SC085 with a Script Liner. 
  8. Do 3 coats of SC015 with a Script Liner on the whole outside base of the mug. 
  9. Now with a Soft Fan use SC015 on the inside and handle of the mug. Do 3 coats of glaze.  
  10. Using a Detail Spotter write “NO YOU HANG UP FIRST” in SC016, doing 3 coats of glaze. This will go on top and below the SC002 wavy boarder.  
  11. Finally, do one coat of SG704 on top of SC015 using a Script Liner around the design and hearts. Then use a Soft Fan Brush for the outside, inside, and handle still using SG704 on top of SC015. Only needs one coat of glaze.  
  12. Fire to cone 06
