Instructions

1. In wet greenware, punch out stars with a star punch, cut a one-inch hole in the back of the tree for the clip in light fixture. Clean and fire when dry to cone 04.

2. Thin slightly FN-002 Yellow, pour to the inside, turn to coat, drain excess, wipe off the glaze that will leak to the front, but put tape over the one-inch hole to make it easier. An alternate way is to leave it bisque on the inside.

3. Brush three coats of FN-218 Green Sapphire to the tree as shown, use a combination of CB-604 Soft Fan and CB-106 Script Liner.  Sponge off the color where the snow will be applied.

4. Brush on two heavy coats of SG-302 Snowfall to the underside of the branches with CB-106 Script Liner and CB-604 Soft Fan, Use CB-110 Liner to get into the little curls in the tips of the branches.

5.  Fire to cone 05/06.

6. If by chance, your edge between the snowfall and the Green Sapphire is uneven or a bluish color, and it is undesirable use a brush on white-out to fix.
