Hammered Patina Copper Earrings!!! Eps 370

[@1959lola]

This is just what I’ve been looking for. Thank you!

[@hannatoland1099]

OMG you are so my kind of nuts - walking the dogs in snow time - singing while dipping - totally able to happily tune in & turn on to learning with your vids - Thanks!

[@VickiBowers]

Matt, another cool way to get color effects on Copper is by flashing them with a torch. Just wave that flame back and forth across your piece until you see an effect you like. Then finish it, as you did, with an acrylic spray sealant. 👍🏻

[@MattsCrazyArt]

I've tried that in the past but plan to try it more

[@debbiegoble9836]

Those are beautiful. Love copper. You can poke holes.in ears now.

[@LauraHinckley]

Thank you! To the keyboard warriors.. these videos are to spark your imagination so you create beautiful jewelry. If he misspoke- remember that his time is valuable also and humans are not perfect. Is it really worth the negativity? Nope. 💕

[@nikolabailey2129]

Great video as always, keep them coming, enjoy watching them xxxxxx

[@VaniaJacobs]

Great tutorial, Matt! Can’t wait for the Covid to pass and we can get out there. I want to come and visit the store when u r ready. Hope all is well!!!

[@kristaransbottom6765]

You can put the LOS in the baking soda solution to neutralize it. Use 0000 grit steel wool for burnishing, too.

[@fhewes7773]

Dang Matt, you are on a ROLL😍❣️ Simplicity is the name of the game . Let it ROLL BABY ROLL 🎶

[@tomslove52]

Looking forward to trying this out. You can also pour the liver of sulphur solution in the soil for hydrangeas to change the flower color 💠

[@kayw9274]

Very nice. Love these! I like how you displayed them on the wire too.

[@marykettler8455]

Matt, These earrings are beautiful. Love copper to work with in jewelry making. Thanks for sharing your designs.

[@mariam3947]

WOW! Totally impressed! Beautiful work Matt! I would so wear these. I would... even w/out the beads, even w/out patina... I would wear them with a fox, I would wear them in a box. I would wear them going to town, inside a box... inside, outside, upside down!! Sorry... love ya Matt🤗

[@normabyrd274]

Really nice! The multiple jump rings make the beads hang so much better! I love the movement.

[@susansladkus672]

Very interesting video. I finally relaxed for a few minutes. Thank you, Matt!

[@mzsarable]

Love this video! so much fun - but you also explain everything meticulously so it's easy to follow. Thank you for such an amazing video!

[@mzsarable]

PS - absolutely gorgeous earrings!

[@Judithptak]

I have got to try working with copper sheet! Nice job on getting the pretty colors with the liver of sulfur!! Beautiful!

[@hotmic4045]

Great video. Safety warning from the interwebs: Liver of sulfur, also known as potassium sulfide or potassium polysulfide, is a chemical compound that is commonly used in metalworking to create a patina or darkening effect on metals like silver or copper. The name "liver of sulfur" comes from its original use as a medicine in ancient times, where it was believed to treat liver ailments due to its dark brown color resembling that of liver tissue. However, liver of sulfur is toxic and should be used with caution in a well-ventilated area while wearing protective gloves and eyewear.

[@galady8632]

Matt - I appreciate your amazing tutorials, thank you for thoroughly sharing your hard-earned knowledge.

[@christhompson4270]

Awesome thank you for sharing 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@ochoulik481]

These are really beautiful! I can hardly wait to try making a pair. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@laurieh.tommer6072]

Love these!!Need to dig out my sheet copper🙂

[@donnanichols6838]

Matt that last step, in the copper patina process, was baking SODA, not baking powder.🤗 Thanks for all the excellent projects, and inspiration!. You ROCK!

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Yup

[@bextermonkey246]

Your Filing is FINE!!

[@ckdstyle_bags]

Hi Matt, when using liver of sulfur you need to use copper, bamboo or plastic tweezers to put your piece in and pull it out. After using the tweezers they need to be designated for only this purpose. If you do not you cannot reuse the liver of sulfur again.

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Bamboo sounds awfully huge to hold a tiny piece of jewelry

[@SilverLandin]

Great job! Love them! Can't wait to start doing sheets.

[@tinafinly4793]

TY!!!!

[@karencamille7910]

Use Elmer's 1 to1 with water to help hold your glass pieces before firing

[@kristibbradshaw]

These are great. Thank you.

[@robinbaich169]

You posted this as I was getting ready to shut everything down and go to bed. Didn't watch more than a minute of the video, but these are lovely earrings.

[@mandymcclure717]

Ty ❤

[@piepeeya4604]

Awesome....Would be fun to make an earring out of a hammered bottle cap with beads. And why stop there....hmmm Could look around and use other metal items. It would be like recycling. =)

[@mdempsey7128]

They’re like cute little Doritos earrings 🤗

[@clairekurdelak2913]

❤️ what you said about enemies

[@MJSTAMAND]

So pretty!

[@VickiBowers]

Cool! I had used Liver of Sulphur before, some years ago in a workshop type situation. Then I had a project that I thought Lover of Sulphur would be an excellent way to patina it. Except I FORGOT how STINKY Liver of Sulphur is! Wooo-wee, stunk my whole house up! I do love the effects you can get with Liver of Sulphur, but I'm not going to use it in the house where I live again! Outside, or in the studio 👍🏻

[@rosemaryreed1226]

Beautiful. Kill Bill earrings

Would love to see a round domed pair 😊

[@zenjennmeditations823]

Matt, I love you. I am a huge fan and have learned so much. I adore your wit, and sense of humor. I need to get In touch. I never received my order. I messaged you on Etsy. I can’t seem to reach you. I know for a fact, hundreds of people have received your beautiful crystals and that was some sort of mistake. We need to work out. ❤️

[@jeannettedanbom4950]

Nice work! Very informative. Thanks

This technique on a piece of copper cut in the shape of an arrowhead might look awesome. Can you try it for us?

[@MattsCrazyArt]

If I ever cut copper again maybe

[@gogumarshmallow]

great job!

[@jaymeberkshire5119]

Matt that looked like baking soda not baking powder, which one was it??? I would absolutely wear them, very pretty!!!

[@medicineheartds9631]

Baking soda, not baking powder.

Yup, Baking Soda

[@mariiasea]

That's super cool!

[@fuzzylimefairy]

These are cool but the scratched up look / doesn't look good. Is there any other way to do it without scratching it?

[@jo-anneyuskin6110]

Your Etsy doesn't ship to Canada. Pity!

[@grannynara]

Baking powder, or soda?

[@creativesolutionsart-h3o]

Oh no… Every time I watch you do something new I end up on Amazon lol

[@violetgypsie]

Its baking soda, not baking powder. Just in case someone didn’t catch that.

Pretty but you need to use Steel Wool # 00, not a sandpaper

[@MattsCrazyArt]

There were no more steel sheep at the steel store

@@MattsCrazyArt Huh? It was just a recommendation out of my experience. No Offence was meant.

No metal for me !

[@chromegirl7546]

You're using baking SODA, not baking powder. There's a difference.

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Yeah, I think I used the right one but called it the wrong name
