  • Step 2To create a smooth surface dampen your fingers with water and spread it over the clay.
  • Step 3Use a small rounded object to pierce a hole in the top of your cartouche. Leave overnight to dry.
  • Step 4Paint your Cartouche gold. Allow to dry.
  • Step 5Download the template provided and use a permanent pen to write your name in hieroglyphs on the front of your Cartouche.
