Hi Anne,
I love these earrings.
You did not mention if you are using transparents or opaques - I assume transparents.
Are you applying clear flux as your first layer?
I would wet pack the earrings one layer at a time- clear flux, dry, fire - next layer of color, dry fire, etc.
If you are using transparents you will need to apply a few layers to obtain the desired depth in color that you are looking for - the first layer
is always very transparent - it always looks good once you apply the wet enamels and let them dry - but once they come out of the kiln
they are very thin - better to be thin then too thick and lumpy -
..... and yes, its a head banger!!
