instructions

1. Using a rectangular template, cut out a piece of copper as before. File the edges and rub the copper with emery paper. Lay the copper on an enamelling stilt, sprinkle a layer of light turquoise powder over the surface and melt in the stove. Carefully remove with a metal spatula to cool down completely. Use a scalpel to cut a leaping rabbit shape from a piece of paper. Lay the stencil over the enamelled rectangle and sprinkle an even layer of white enamel over the cut out rabbit.

2. Carefully lift off the stencil; any stray particles of enamel powder can be cleaned away by using a damp paintbrush. Melt the enamel in a stove and leave to cool. Add a small turquoise eye and flower detail using a brass stencil. Melt the enamel in a stove once again and leave to cool. Mix up epoxy resin and glue the enamelled rabbit to a brooch blank.
