Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- Using CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 3 coats of SC-92 Cafè Olè to the MB-1224 Reindeer Ornament.
- Using CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 2 coats of SC-46 Rawhide to the antlers. Apply 2 coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to the nose.
- With a palette knife and a palette, thicken S-2101 Crystal Clear with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to the consistency of peanut butter. Add blue food coloring to tint the glaze.
- Using the pine cone from DSS-0106 Winter/Holiday (grain side up), take the tinted and thickened S-2101 Crystal Clear mixture and rub it through the screen with your finger. Screen the pine cones to the flat section of the reindeer. (For color placement only.)
- Using only the scarf from the snowman from DSS-0106 Winter/Holiday, rub the tinted and thickened S-2101 Crystal Clear mixture through the screen with your finger to the front of MB-1169 Snowman Ornament. (For color placement only.) Rinse the screen and lay flat to dry.
