Step 1

Draw your design on a glazed tile with a permanent marker. This process is most successful with simple forms, so avoid excessive detail.

Step 2

Dip the eraser end of the pencil into the glaze and use it to make dots on the glazed surface. You do not need to fill the entire space.

Step 3

Use applicator to apply an analogous color.

Step 4

Enhance your design by using a lighter or darker value of one of your colors. Teacher's Palette glazes can be mixed to achieve these results.

Step 5

Complete your other sections by repeating steps 2-4.

Step 6

Fire to Cone 05 at medium speed. The marker lines will burn out in this step, leaving only the glaze dots.
