this tutorial tells you exactly how you can create a real aged patina on brass with a little bit of time and a few things you probably have in your kitchen cabinets. This mixture of ammonia and kosher salt will create a blue-green patina in just a few hours. The bracelet is sweet and vintage-looking. I imagine it looks like something you'd find in a old garden shed where it had been aging for decades. Perhaps the original wearer removed it to pot up a geranium one warm Spring day and forgot to put it back on...
So pretty!!

And I've been trying to remove the aged patina from my jewelry! Will have to try this. Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try this technique! I love using ordinary materials that are already laying around the house to transform something from nice to awesome.
