I like CREATABLE COLORS as an underglaze if you are going to fire the children’s work

Cone 06 Glaze, Underglaze & Majolica Especially for Bisque

• Create thousands of brilliant shades and hues from the Primary Palette of Creatable Colors.

• Use as an underglaze under Creatable Colors’ clear gloss or clear matte.

• Apply as a stand-alone glaze for a bright and brilliant finish.

• Brush over Creatable Colors majolica base for the look of the Renaissance!

The Creatable Colors glaze system has been designed to allow you, the artist, to use either the primary palette colors directly from the jar, or to mix, in varying amounts,

two or more of the primary palette colors to achieve a virtually unlimited number of brilliant bold hues, pastel shades and everything in between.
