These, very organic copper flowers, for some reason, were very difficult to clean after oxidizing them…..not sure what I did! Â My fingers were black!
Bead Table Wednesday ~ i {heart} copper
Happy Bead Table Wednesday!
It is sad how long it has been since I have done a BTW post. I could have been doing them, because my bead table has been a very active place….but…..anyhoo…..I am back this week at least 🙂
I am getting ready for a show next week, so I have been working on some new components.
In this last post about the Woodland Necklace, I discovered how much I love copper……all on it’s own. Since then I have been cutting and hammering and forging and soldering away with copper. Â I just love all the colors copper turns under the heat from the torch!
Here is what was on my table today…..
I have been experimenting with Shannon LeVart’s tutorial, called Turning Leaves, which you can purchase on Etsy. It is a great tutorial which will lead you step by step through creating mixed media leaves. Again, I used copper! Â Fun! Fun! Fun!
