Hello! Thank you for purchasing a Busy Bees’ Stoneware-To-Go kit for lots of at-home painting FUN. Our Stoneware Premium Product is both beautiful and functional. Stoneware is the perfect solution for everyday household wear and tear dishware. This premium clay body is designed to hold up to everyday stresses. Care is simple, just toss in the dishwasher to clean! Microwaveable and oven safe!

We want you to have the best experience with painting outside of our fun hive so here is some helpful information to make your projects a success.

1. All of our pottery glazes are NON-toxic and cleanup easily with water but we recommend working on a covered surface (an apron or smock is good too).
2. Your colors will be provided in your kit based on the combination your choose.
3. Use the appropriate size brush for the area that you are painting (big areas use a big brush, small areas use a small brush).
4. Do not paint below the red line – this area is covered with wax which prevents the piece from sticking in the kiln. If you accidentally paint in this area, Busy Bees will carefully remove the paint from the area for you.
5. We recommend 2 coats of each color for solid coverage. Let the paint dry fully before adding the next coat. Paint will look dull and chalky when dry. The color is very different than what it will look like once fired.
6. After your projects are dry, wrap them in a paper towel or napkin & return to Busy Bees for kiln firing. This will make your projects shiny, glossy and food safe! 
7. Your project(s) will be ready for pick-up once fired. Busy Bees will contact you once fired and ready for pickup.

We hope that you enjoy your time creating memories, we look forward to seeing you soon!
– Your Friends at Busy Bees <3
