Mistletoe Green for which holiday?
"I debated before purchase on whether I wanted to go darker than Mistletoe, and I'm happy I didn't. It was to serve as a background for Titanium White stenciling, and it worked beautifully. I'm sorry I do not have photos handy; they're not sized yet and I run my business from an RV which is about to move to another location- literally in an hour! Yup. Kiln included."

Enamels and Sunshine Ferro colors
"I wish I had gotten 2 ounces sizes of Thompson’s, but they are great. Also have been purchasing the Sunshine Ferro colors. Love them. You can use them somewhat thick, thinned to watercolor washes, mix the colors. Just like working in watercolor. Make sure to test colors before using."
