Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the RB140 #8 Soft Fan, apply 3 coats of SW115 Aqua Gloss to the outside of the mug.
  3. Using the CB106 #6 Script Liner, apply 2 thin coats of SC102 Just Peachy to make the body of the shrimps. (You may want to mark the spacing of these with a washable marker) Each body is one swoop of a brushstroke for the shape – 2 coats total.
  4. Apply 1 coat of SC016 Cotton tail to the belly of the shrimps.
  5. Apply 1 coat of SC088 Tu Tu Tango to the tail and markings on the shrimps.
  6. Using the RB140 #8 Soft Fan, apply 2 coats of SC102 Just Peachy to the inside of the mug.
  7. Apply 1 coat of SC088 Tu Tu Tango to the inside of the mug.
  8. Use a damp sponge to clean any excess glaze that may have got on the foot.
  9. Place directly on the kiln shelf and fire to cone 6.
