Instructions for Tile Project

Class of 2020!!
Glazing instructions


We are doing things differently in this different time.  We will have a special place to showcase your tiles for this reason.  

Because we can’t do this project in the Art Studio with lots of choices in glaze colors, we have decided to go with three colors.  We also decided to have you either paint your name or initials, the year 2020, and a border around the tile- leaving the background white.


Helpful hints and reminders:

  • practice first on paper (just trace around the tile on scratch paper)
  • two coats of glaze for bold colors
  • don’t overlap / mix colors
  • if you make an “oops”, all paint can be washed off and dried
  • Q-tips are great for small clean ups on the tile
  • toothpicks are helpful to scrap off dried glaze to make edges “cleaner”
  • tile and border can be one, two, or three colors - your choice

Have fun you Cuties!  Please come back to Keppel and say “Hi!”  Miss your faces!!
