What do you do ?
-
You can use HB pencil to sketch a plan on your tile (the pencil will burn off in the kiln). Checkout our Pinterest page (https://www.pinterest.co.uk/glazedexpression/take-home-kits/) for ideas and inspiration.
-
Decorate the front of your tile or item, (the underside will not be clear glazed), Only use the underglaze paint that is supplied (using any other paint will not work and will cause damage to our kiln). The colours will darken and intensify once fired.
-
If you make a mistake the paint will rinse or wipe off quite easily, try using a moistened cotton bud for small mistakes. Allow the tile to dry before continuing with your decoration.
-
Allow to completely dry and write your name on the back (with HB pencil)
-
We will coat your tile with a layer of clear glaze and fire in the kiln It will then be water proof and food safe.
-
We will message you when your creations are ready to collect (or when they have been posted) in a Covid19 safe way according to the current government advice (could be 1-2 weeks depending on our kiln schedules).
