Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque.  Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisqe to remove any dust.
  2. Using the CB-604 Soft Fan Brush apply three coats of SC-77 Glo-worm to the entire tree.
  3. Punch out various sizes of snowflakes.  Wet the area of Glo-worm before placing on the paper snowflake, press gently with a paper towel to make the paper stick to the glaze.  A light coat of Glo-worm over the paper, also helps prevent color bleed.  The snowflake is acting as a masking, so the edges need to be sealed so the top color does not leak underneath.
  4. Using the CB-604 Soft Fan Brush apply two coats of SC-39 Army Surplus over the snowflake area of the tree, leave the areas under the branches Glo-worm.
  5. Remove the paper snowflakes.  Use of a needle tool and tweezers is helpful.
  6. Using the CB-106 Script Liner apply two heavy coats of SG-302 Snowfall on the tips of the branches.
  7. Stilt and fire to shelf cone 06/05.
