THIS arrangement will be useful for tall vases, claret 
jugs and tankards. Repeat design three or 
four times and use a band the width of the darkest leaf 
between each section. Outline design in Grey for 
Flesh and fire it. 
Second Fire — Paint flowers a very delicate pink 
using Albert Yellow and Blood Red; dark spots in 
flowers are the same color using it much heavier. Light 
leaves are Moss Green, two parts, and Grey for Flesh, 
one part. Dark leaves are Shading Green, one part; 
Grey for Flesh, one part. Bands between sections 
are the same color. 
Third Fire — Oil the entire surface; wipe the oil 
from the flowers. When partly dry dust with three 
parts Pearl Grey, one part Apple Green. Clean all 
color from the flower and touch up the flower where 
needed with same color used in first fire. Shade 
toward center of flower with Yellow and just a little
