TEAL COBBLESTONE PUMPKINS
INSTRUCTIONS
Hammered Pumpkin #1:
  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan with FN-001 White, apply 3 coats to the entire pumpkin. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the Soft Fan with SG-202 White Cobblestone, apply 3 coats to the body of the pumpkin (not the stem). Allow glaze to lose its shine before applying the second and third coats, but do not wait until it is dry enough to crack.
  4. Using the Soft Fan with FN-042 Teal Blue, apply 1 coat to the body of the pumpkin (not the stem). Do this after the final coat from step #3 loses its shine, but do not wait until it is dry enough to crack.
  5. Stilt and fire to cone 06.
