Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- Using a CB-602 #2 Soft Fan, apply 2 coats of FN-011 Light Blue to the top of the tray
- With the same brush apply 3 coats of SC-20 Cashew Later, SC-26 Green Thumb, SC-27 Sour Apple, SC-73 Candy Apple Red, and SC-74-Hot Tamale in the egg divots. It depends on how many elf faces you want as to how many SC-20 Cashew Later ones you will have; the others were applied randomly to the leftover divots.
- Once those are dry you may draw the faces. You can either freehand and make your own or use the template that is provided with AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper
- Using a combination of CB-106 #6 Script Liner, CB-202 #2 Detail Liner, and CB-110 #10/0 Mini Liner paint the faces with at least 2 coats of the detail colors.
- Using a CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 1-2 coats of SP-245 Speckled Blue Heaven depending on how many speckles you would like. It is done after the designs and not as a base coat because the speckles will come through any glaze that is painted on top of it.
- Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 3 coats of FN-006 Blue to the back of the tray. Allow to dry.
- Stilt and fire to shelf cone 06/05.
