Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Pour around 1/4 cup of EL-101 Oyster Shell into the disposable cup. Thin with water until it is easily poured. Pour into the vase and rotate until the inside is covered. Pour out the excess.
  3. Pour around ½ oz of PC-601 Clear Cascade into one of the 1oz bottles. Pour around ½ of PC-602 White Cascade into the other bottle. Screw on the detailer tips and cut the ends off until you can see a small hole.
  4. Using the Soft Fan with EL-101 Oster Shell, apply 2 coats to the outside of the vase. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  5. Using the 1oz bottle with PC-602 White Cascade, apply a continuous line going from the top of the vase to the bottom. The less perfect, the better.
  6. Pour around 1oz of EL-101 Oyster Shell, EL-129 Slate and S-2718 Cosmic Black onto the palette.
  7. Dip the Soft Fan into EL-101 Oyster Shell and gently “pat” the glaze randomly onto the vase. You should cover around 1/3 of the surface.
  8. Repeat with the same brush and EL-129 Slate. Be sure to go over some of the glaze from Step #7.
  9. Repeat with the same brush and S-2718 Cosmic Black. Be sure to go over some of the glaze from Steps #7 and #8.
  10. Repeat with the same brush and EL-101 Oyster Shell, just in a few spots.
  11. Using the 1oz bottle with PC-601 Clear Cascade, apply a continuous line going from the top of the vase to the bottom. The less perfect, the better.
  12. Fire to cone 06.
