- Add one drop of liquid dish soap to each container with paint. Mix together.
- Use drinking straw to blow air into the paint/soap mixture to create bubbles.
- Lower the outside of your bisque onto the bubbles. The bubbles will pop right on the ware, creating delicate bubble-shaped circles of color. Repeat as many times as you need to get the pattern coverage you want. Let dry.
