Directions

1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
2. This tree comes with a wiring hook-up and multicolored Medium Twist plastic lights. The Medium Twist plastic lights were changed out for Clear Medium Globe lights.
3. Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 1 coat of SC-33 Fruit of the Vine to the tree and the base. Allow to dry!
4. With a damp sponge, wipe back the color leaving the color in the crevices and the detail. Rinse the sponge out often as you go.
5. Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 2 coats of FN-236 Miami Pink to the tree and the base. Allow to dry between coats.
6. Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 1 coat of S-2101 Crystal Clear Brushing over the FN-236 Miami Pink. Allow to dry!
7. Stilt and fire to cone 06, 05.
8. Using an OB-901 Mother of Pearl Brush, apply 1 thin brushed out coat of OG803 Mother of Pearl to the tree and the base. The thinner and more swirls as you apply the better result you will have.
9. Clean your brush with OA901 Essence. This bottle should be just for the Mother of Pearl.
10. Stilt and fire to cone 020.
11. Glue the lights into the tree and put the pinch plug wiring into the base.
