Question
I purchased a vintage Ceramic Tree.  I wish it had snow on the branch tips.  Is there paint that would stick to the glaze and look like snow with out it having to be fired?  It is too old to fire.

Answer
Hi Suzi Jones, leave the tree as is, why take the chance of applying anything and then not being able to get it off. Tell everyoue its an Australian chrictmas tree :-).

There is certinally no snow here at the moment, it's the middle of Summer.
