Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the CB-604 Soft Fan Brush, apply 3 coats of SW-119 Cinnabar to the back sides and the front of the platter. Do not glaze the bottom or the foot.
  3. Using the carbon paper and a pencil, transfer the pattern onto the platter. Darken the lines with a pencil if necessary.
  4. Prime the CB-110 Mini Liner by dipping it in AC-525 Brush Cleaner and wiping off the excess with a paper towel. Use it to apply one coat of AC-302 Wax Resist to the lines from the pattern and let dry. Clean your brush immediately after use with additional brush cleaner.
  5. Using the CB-106 Script Liner, apply one heavy coat of SW-167 to leaves #1, 7, 9 and 10 according to the pattern. Apply one heavy coat of SW-168 Coral Sands to leaves #4, 5, 6 and 11. Apply one heavy coat of SW-169 Frosted Lemon to leaves #2, 3 and 8.
  6. Using the CB-106 Script Liner, apply two coats of SW-166 Norse Blue to the areas around the leaves, up to but not including the rim.
  7. Do not stilt or hang over the edge of the kiln shelf.
  8. Fire to cone 5/6.
