How To Paint a Glazed Ceramic Pumpkin:
Step 1: Clean and prepare the surface
To begin the process, you will need to thoroughly clean the ceramic pumpkin. I employed a combination of warm water and soap to ensure a thorough and effective washing. Dixie Belle’s White Lightning is another great way to clean prior to painting.
Step 2: Apply bonding primer
Following the cleaning, your next step entails the application of an evenly distributed coat of [updated] Bonding BOSS onto the surface of the pumpkin. This will ensure comprehensive coverage.
Step 3: Dry completely
I then proceeded to apply an extra layer of Slick Stick (updated: Bonding BOSS) onto the ceramic pumpkin, allowing for a drying duration of 24 hours before initiating the rest of the painting process.
Step 4: Add your first paint layer
Once dry, I added a layer of the Prairie Dawn Terra Clay Paint from Dixie Belle. Use patience here to allow time for the initial coat of Terra paint to a dry no less than 2 hours before you add additional layers.
Step 5: Seal with a clear coat
Optional: As a precautionary measure to preserve the surface, I applied a Clear Top Coat in Satin for its protective qualities.
At White Lilac Farm, we’ve now transformed a ceramic pumpkin into a matching decor item. Dixie Belle’s products, notably BOSS and Clear Top Coat in Satin, played a crucial role.
From cleansing to coating, the process was a lot of fun! White Lilac Farm appreciates Dixie Belle’s commitment to high-quality, user-friendly products.
Our ceramic pumpkin now matches our aesthetic. Whether an experienced or an aspiring artist, Dixie Belle has a project for any of your artistic visions. We hope that this journey inspires your creative projects. Happy painting from White Lilac Farm!
Until next time,
Dixie Belle Paint & The White Lilac Farm
