Original tea pair

More and more often, as a gift, we try to choose an author's little thing. We offer to make it with your own hands. For creativity, you need a plain tea pair of glazed clay, as well as special paints for painting ceramics.
The lesson will be exciting even for children from the age of seven.
The first stage in the manufacture of designer dishes will be painting plates. We chose the spring theme and decorated the edge of the saucer with uneven strokes of green paint. In the process, you should not wet the brush, since only a dense consistency of paint will allow you to maintain the shape of the picture on the glazed surface.
In the center of the saucer, we depicted a small sprout with leaves, and then added yellow drops in the form of double flowers. When the paint dried a little, in the center of the plate we painted a bright red berry. The finished saucer was set aside for drying.
At the bottom of the mug, a contour was drawn with a simple pencil, and then the paint was painted. It should be said that when using a pencil, the drawing is smoother. Then, with a saturated green color, a rim was made on top and bottom of the circle. Shades of green can be changed by adding a little white or yellow. In conclusion, flowers were applied to the outer side surface of the cup, similar to those depicted on the plate.
Ready pair for fixing the picture was sent to bake in a hot electric oven for 20 minutes. The average temperature in the oven should be about two hundred degrees. Do not increase the temperature, the paint should be baked slowly. Cool the product slowly in the oven. Before use, the cup and saucer are washed in running water using any cleaning liquid.
