Instructions

  1. Begin by wiping down the bisque with a damp sponge to remove any dirt/dust.  
  2. Mix two ounces of SC015 Tuxedo with a heavy pinch of AC310 Silkscreen Medium using a pallet knife and set aside to let thicken up.  
  3. Prepare the prism technique by squirting out a line of each color directly from the bottle, side by side and touching, on the pallet in this order: SC050 Orange Ya Happy, SC024 Dandelion, SC096 Aqu-ward, SC028 Blue Isle, SC103 Lavendear, SC070 Pink-A-Dot 
  4. Using the soft fan brush, start from the bottom of the rainbow glaze pallet and pat the glaze into the brush bristles. 
  5. Apply the glaze mixture randomly in different directions across the face of the bisque piece. 
  6. Once the piece is covered, go back over the first layer of rainbows with a second layer of rainbows, doing your best to go in different directions from the first layer.  
    1. Note: If possible, allow this base layer to dry overnight or for a couple of hours before applying the silkscreen steps for the best silkscreen application. 
  7. Apply three coats of SC015 Tuxedo to the inside of the tea bag container. 
  8. Using your finger, apply the silkscreen medium and SC015 Tuxedo mixture from step 2 to the Art Deco silkscreen with light pressure in a circular motion on the pre-glazed sides of the container. Remove the screen immediately each time. 
  9. Allow to dry, stilt, and fire to cone 06.
