  • Can you make this video where mobile phone can view it?

  • @alphafem75 I wasn't aware that it couldn't be viewed on a mobile - I will look into the settings and see what I can do - thanks for making me aware :-)

  • Hello, I was just wondering where you bought the crown or how it was made out of polymer clay.

  • @kiraaxchaos Hi, The crown was made with Fimo soft and a mould by Krafty Lady. I used black clay, and dusted it with gold perfect pearls.

  • Hi Rach, love this! I had some sheets of copper that I have had for a long time. I am doing the overnite soak tonight. I like the middle one the best. You mentioned the patina coming off and I am wondering if you took some spray acrylic and coated it if that would keep it from coming off? I have sprayed paper to keep glitter from coming off and it worked well. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me. Have a great weekend.

  • @grammypame Hi, Yes, the finishing lacquer that I mention using is acrylic based, though some still came off. I also found that if you want to glue things onto it, use something sharp to score the metal for a better grip - Or use brads etc for attaching embellishments. Have fun playing! Hugs, Rach

  • Hi Rachel! I just started subscribing to your videos...I learn more in ONE of your videos than I do in watching MANY others! Please keep them coming! One question, what did you say the paint was that you used on these projects (i.e., on the paper and the clay) to make them look like aged copper?
