Thank you so much, Judith! Yes, you can find those directions on the copper leaf package – the copper leaf will either come as individual tissue-thin sheets or with a paper backing (visit this post for application tips) which I prefer, but they both work very similarly. My best tip is to make sure you let the metal leaf adhesive dry until it’s VERY tacky before you apply the copper leaf.

But, you didn’t show anything about applying the copper leaf. Are there directions in the package?

Thanks Charlotte! That part was the most nerve-racking – I was watching my dad make the cuts and kept yelling at him to watch his fingers, certain he was going to lose one or two! Afterwards, he mentioned that the scroll saw really wouldn't do any damage if he accidentally touched it. I wish I had known that at first, lol!

Very, very cool! I can't even imagine the fussiness involved with CUTTING the ends of that tiny copper tubing! This one is stored away in my brain for when I have the right space/ stumble across some agate slices!

Thank you so much Erica! They seriously are like lollipops for my wall and kind of make me crave sugar when I look at them 😉
