Instructions

  1. Lightly wipe ware with damp sponge to remove any bisque dust.
  2. To transfer patterns onto the diamond and round box lids, place the clay carbon paper on lid with pattern on top, then trace over pattern with pen. Remove papers.
  3. Condition the No. 1 Liner and No. 6 Round with Brush Cleaner, then use as necessary to apply Mask ‘n Peel® to the entire design on the diamond box and the center design on the round box. Let dry.
  4. Referring to photo, apply masking tape to the top and bottom of round box lid, pressing tape down tightly to the ware.
  5. Use palette knife to stir Night Frost, being careful not to mix in crystals sitting at bottom of container. Using the Fan Glaze brush, apply two flowing coats of Night Frost to the bottom and top of the diamond box, allowing the color to dry thoroughly between coats. Before applying the third coat, stir Night Frost again, making sure to stir crystals into the rest of the glaze. After the third coat is applied, allow it to lose its sheen but not dry completely and remove the Mask ‘n Peel® from the lid.
  6. Clean up any uneven glaze on the masked areas.
  7. Pour a puddle of Bright Ginger onto a piece of foil. Using the No. 1 Liner, fill in the design on diamond box with three coats of Bright Ginger, letting dry between coats.
  8. Pour needed amount of Dark Grape into a paper cup. On the Round Box, apply three coats of Dark Grape to the box bottom and lid, allowing the color to dry between coats. After the third coat has lost its sheen, remove the masking tape and the Mask ‘n Peel® from the lid.
  9. Pour a puddle of Really Red onto foil. Using the No, 1 Liner or the No. 6 Round as needed, fill in the remaining areas on the round lid with three flowing coats of Really Red, allowing the color to dry between coats.
  10. Using the Fan Glaze brush, apply three flowing coats of Really Red to the heart box bottom and lid, allowing the color to dry between coats.
