Crystal Owl Planter
Designer: Carmen Allen
Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 2 coats of SC-86 Old Lace to the belly of the owl.
- Using a CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 1 coat of SC-54 to the edges of the belly fading it into the middle.

- Using a combination of a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan and a CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 3 coats of SC-5 Tiger Tail to the wings, the inside, and to the outsides of the eyes. This will also be part of the iris, but you will only need 2 coats for that.

- Using a CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 2 coats of SC-42 Butter Me Up to the beak and feet.
