Instructions

Dinner Plate:

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan with FN239 Spiced Cream, apply 3 coats to the back of the plate. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the Soft Fan with FN239 Spiced Cream, apply 3 coats to the front of the plate. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  4. After the glaze is dry to the touch, place the pattern over the front of the plate. Lightly trace with the pencil. You should be able to faintly see the pattern in the glaze. Do not press hard enough to go down to the bisque.
  5. Take the three AC-20 Bottles and fill them with SC035 Gray Hare, SC060 Silver Lining, and SC099 Char-ming. Label the outside of the bottles with the permanent marker. Screw the tip onto each bottle.
