Instructions

  1. Use a damp sponge to wipe any debris from the bisque.
  2. Using a Soft Fan brush, apply 4 coats of SC-25 Crackerjack Brown to the entire piece except for the top and the arms. Let dry between coats.
  3. Apply 3 coats of SC-16 Cotton Tail to the top and arms using a Soft Fan brush.
  4. Using RB-104 #4 Liner brush, apply SC-74 Hot Tamale in stripes over the Cotton Tail on the arms and top (optional: Some may find adding thin strips of tape to outline the stripes to help instead of free handing). Apply 3 coats.
  5. Use FD258 Pure White to draw on your windows and doors. Apply lines at the top above the window to create strings for the lights.
  6. Using a Soft Fan brush and a Script Liner, apply 3 coats of SG-302 Snowfall to the bottom of the tree and the swirls, the tips of the arms and the top.
  7. Using the back of a brush, dot SC-74 Hot Tamale and SC-8 Just Froggy along the French Dimensions outlines, string lights, and around the bottom of the tree.
  8. Stilt and fire to cone 06.
