Technique #17 ~
Cobblestone Deer

You will need an appropriate cone 04 bisque plate and the following products:

IN1075 - Cobalt Blue glaze
SG202 - White Cobblestone
Soft fan brush
Contact Paper

Technique #17
Technique #17

1.Wipe bisque dust off using a damp sponge.
2. Apply 3 coats of Blue glaze to the entire plate, drying between coats.
3. Trace pattern onto contact paper. Poke a hole in the center and carefully cut out the deer. This makes a stencil.
4. Line stencil up carefully so that deer is not tilted or too far to one side. Stick the stencil down, being sure inside edges are well sealed.
5.Apply 2 coats of White Cobblestone to deer pattern. Apply 3 very generous coats of Cobblestone (to get better covereange than we did) to the outer rim of plate. Allow to dry thoroughly between coats. Be very careful handling the plate as the Cobblestone has a tendency to flake off after drying.
5. Stilt and fire to shelf cone 06.


Try this idea using other simple patterns you may already have on hand and other colors. Looks pretty cool, doesn't it? You could try a white Christmas tree on a green or red plate. A white Easter Bunny on a pink plate. The possibilities are endless!
