You are GOLD!....GOLD!


 Costume jewelry can come in so many interesting designs and it can be hard to part with pieces when they start to tarnish and get that horrible copper green look.

I bought some classic gold Liquid Leaf paint(£8.00)from an art shop and experimented with bringing some old earrings back to life by painting them. The result were amazing and will save me a fortune.

The paint goes on smoothly and is touch dry in about 20mins ,but best to leave overnight before you wear.

Bear in mind that the paint is matt gold and will alter shiny pieces and the paint may not be suitable for for sensitive skin.
You may want to spray with a clear varnish sealant for longevity.

Liquid Leaf paint comes in a range of colours including silver.
The best prices I've found is on Ebay for around.£6.00.

Happy Blinging!
