How to do it

1 Hook with a design: Print the template which is available as a separate PDF file for this idea. Cut it out and outline with a pencil on the hook. A TIP: Alternatively place the print with the design onto the hook and shade with a pencil, thus transferring the outline of the design onto the hook (like using carbon paper).

2 Outline the design with a black glass and porcelain marker.

3 Fill in the design with the same marker.

4 Fix in a household oven for 90 min. at 160°C. (The instructions are printed directly on the marker).

5 Varnish the hook with decoupage lacquer for glass and porcelain. Fix in a household oven for 30 min. at 160°C.

6 Painted hook: Apply two coats of A-Color Glass paint all over the hook and allow to dry between each coat. May be varnished for durability when in use. Follow the same procedure as in step 5.
