Instructions

With this glaze, I usually double dip pieces, which means the surface can be very delicate and prone to flaking off if not gently handled. In the firing, the glaze has a tendency to run significantly when it gets to temperature, so I recommend making a wadding disk or cookie to fire the piece on to help minimize the damage to shelves. I recommend mixing to a heavy-whipping-cream consistency and dipping to apply.
