Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust. 
  2. Draw a large rectangle in the middle of the plate. At the top and sides of the rectangle, add rectangles and round lines to make it look more like a house.  
    1. Add 3 horizontal rectangles on top of each other in the middle of the large rectangle.  
      1. The top rectangle will be filled in with 3 coats of SP2105 Speckled Tic-Tac-Turquoise and will have the word “YOU” in the middle with 3 coats of SC286 Old Lace. Apply with an AB704 #3 Round brush.
