Such beautiful pieces, Irith, who cares about two days? My favorite is the top necklace although the other two pieces are not far behind.

Let us know how the egg works out for you, Michelle. I've had pretty good luck with that method in the past. Irith, those are simply stunning! All so beautiful, but if I have to choose a favorite, it would be the first one. I love that little flower and the faceted red (ruby?) stone and the setting and well everything about it! Dawn

The egg didn’t work too well. I used one that had been boiled a couple of days earlier and kept in the fridge. So maybe a fresher one would have worked better. I might try that another time. Anyway I ordered liver of sulphur.

It has to be freshly boiled and I got the best results if it was still warm.

It's so beautiful, Michelle. I love the contrast between the rose quartz and the darkened copper, perfect!

Ooooo, I love it! There is something about oxidized copper that is like magic to me. How did you like working with the LOS, Michelle? Besides the smell. Dawn

Thanks so much, Cat & Dawn! I appreciate your encouragement you gave me to antique it. Ha! I’ve used LOS before (just chose not to transport it to NC), and yes…, fragrant! LOL!

When I use LOS, hubby makes me go outside on the deck to darken my wire. Dawn
