Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Script Liner with SC-16 Cotton Tail, apply 3 coats to the eyes. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the Script Liner with SC-80 Basketball, apply 3 coats to the muzzle and ears. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  4. Using the Script Liner with SC-34 Down To Earth, apply 3 coats to the nose. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  5. Using the Script Liner and Soft Fan with SC-48 Camel Back, apply 3 coats to the rest of the monkey. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  6. Cut the paper towel into 2 or 3” strips. Squeeze 1 TBS of SC-34 Down to Earth onto the palette. Dip the sponge on a stick into the glaze and sponge the palette a few times to get rid of any excess glaze. Then sponge the textured side of the paper towel strip. Place the strip onto the monkey’s body, glazed side down. Remove the strip. Repeat until the entire body has “texture".
  7. Using the Soft Fan with SC-34 Down to Earth, apply 3 coats to the inside of the monkey. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  8. Using the Detail Line with SC-15 Tuxedo, outline the details on the monkey. Add a “frown” over its mouth. Then make “angry” eyebrows slanted down in the center.
  9. Dip into NT-CLR Clear Dipping glaze.
  10. Fire to cone 06.

NOTE: For small kids, have them do just 1 coat of all of the glazes. This will be dipped in clear glaze at the end.
