Instructions

 

Vase:

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Squeeze around ¼ cup of SC-10 Teal Next Time into the disposable cup and thin with water. Pour into the vase and rotate until the inside is completely covered. Drain the excess and place upside down on paper towels for 1 minute. Turn right side up and wipe any drips with a damp sponge.
  3. Using the Soft Fan with FN-301 Marshmallow White, apply 3 coats to the outside of the vase. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  4. Squeeze AC-302 Wax Resist onto the palette. Take the handle of a brush and dip the end in the wax. Press the end of the brush onto one of the hobnails. Move the brush in a circular motion to cover the entire hobnail. Repeat until they are all covered in wax.
  5. Using the Detail Liner with wax, make lines connecting the dots.
