Copper (and Brass) Etching!

I had been wanting to learn to etch copper for quite some time, then recently I ran across a tutorial written by Etsy seller Copperheart that made it seem so easy. Check out her tutorial here!

So now, I’m happily etching every piece of copper, brass, and nickel silver I can get my hands on. You’ll see quite a lot of it popping up in my Zbella shop soon. I’ve already made butterflies, gingko leaves, bamboo (like the example above), and fun little abstract patterns. If there’s anything you’d like to see in my shop, just write your suggestion in the comments below.

Question of the Day: What’s your favorite current tv show?
