Exploring design with enamling

Stencil
 

I was watching a tutorial video on enameling when I came across the idea of a stencil being used to add design onto the enamel, so I decided to create a mendhi design stencil. 
Designed on a piece of paper and then used a wax blade to do the cut outs of the design. 
Stencil design on plate

The stencil was placed onto the enameled plate that an opaque green as the background and I had then sifted the enamel powder onto the stencil to get the design onto the plate, inserted into the kiln and then waited for 1-2 min for the enamel to fuse onto the metal. 
Final: stenciled design



This is the final outcome once it has been removed from the kiln and cooled.
