Aging copper & brass




Hi everyone,
I  have been wanting to Experiment with aging copper &Brass for years, but I did not want to use harsh chemicals or ammonia, which I am allergic to. So, I am going to  use the lemon juice, salt, and white vinegar solution found in this great blog!!

I will post photos when I manage my desired results :-) CJD.sign

I personally would use these beautiful agate coasters with their natural edging. But this is a nice decorating update on your old coasters. I enjoy stones, gemstones, precious stones so much I think we should use them in our daily lives.
