Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Pour around 1/2 cup of EL-107 Amber Ash 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 1 TBS of SW-303 Manganese Wash onto the palette. Dip the sponge on a stick into the wash and sponge the stamp. Press the stamp onto the top half of the vase, 1 face at a time. Repeat until all 8 faces are stamped.
  4. Using the Soft Fan with SW-303 Manganese Wash, apply 2 coats to the bottom half of the vase. Allow wash to dry between coats. Dip the regular sponge in the wash and sponge over where the brushed area meets the stamped area. You don’t have to do that if you would rather have a straight line between the 2 areas.
  5. Using the Soft Fan with EL-107 Amber Ash, apply 2 coats to the upper 2/3 of the vase. Allow glaze to dry between coats. Dip the regular sponge into the glaze and sponge over the bottom of the glazed area. You don’t have to do that if you would rather have a straight line.
  6. Fire to cone 06
