Prepare your metal with a counter and top layer of enamel.
Place a trivet onto a folded wire mesh rack and set it aside within arm's reach. Fill a sifter about 1/3 full with a color of enamel that contrasts the color of the top layer. While holding your work over a piece of paper, sift a layer of enamel onto the front side.
Using a tool with a fine point or a fine-tipped artist's quality paintbrush, "scratch" out a pattern in the dry enamel.
Carefully place the blank onto the trivet. If needed, use a beading awl or toothpick to clean any stray enamel.
Fire the piece in a kiln or with a torch. Allow the piece to cool to room temperature before touching it.
Fold the paper to form a funnel-like spout then pour the excess enamels back into the container.
If needed, repeat. If needed or you would like, stone the edges with an alundum stone.
