Colorful Cobblestone Mushroom

Designer: Bailie Benson

Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 6×6” bisque tile. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan brush with FN009 Black, apply 2 coats to the front and edges of the tile. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. When glaze is dry to the touch, place the pattern on the tile.
  4. Using very light pressure, trace over the pattern with the pencil.
  5. Using the Detail Liner, coat bristles with liquid soap, then use AC302 Wax Resist to outline the pattern on the tile.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SG202 White Cobblestone, apply 3 coats to each section of the pattern (not the background). Allow glaze to lose its shine before applying the 2nd and 3rd coats. Wait for the 3rd coat to lose its shine before moving on to Step #7.
  7. Using the Script Liner with SC100 Making Me Blush (background), SC101 Spruce it up (stem and dots), SC102 Just Peachy (ground), SC103 Lavendear (cap), SC104 Grape Expectations (gills) apply 1 coat to each section of the pattern as indicated between the parentheses.
  8. Stilt and fire to cone 06.
