Create and Embellish Decals on Enamel

Learn how to use your own photos or drawings to create decals for vitreous enamels. In

class we will print, apply, and fire your decals on enameled shapes. The printer we have

creates sepia images when fired. We will be using kiln firing methods. The class will

then learn hand coloring using watercolor enamels and alternative techniques. Each

participant will be able to create pieces that could be turned into jewelry or small scale

wall pieces. 

  • No enameling or metalsmithing experience is necessary to take this

workshop.

Materials to Bring

  • Bring digital images (around 6) of what you would like to be made into a decal. Images

need to be on a USB or you can email them to me in advance at amybaileymetals@gmail.com. 

  • Images need to be black and white for the decal. In

addition, I have found a color photo of the same image is helpful to reference if you

want to add hand coloring to it. If you have questions, email me.

Materials Fee is $10

This covers the decal paper, copper, and enamels.
