Copper-ific!

A wall mounted commission involving copper sheeting as a backing to the glass. Step one....clean it!
Lots of elbow grease! Once it was clean and sparkling, I used hand sanders to etch swirls into it.
...and then....

an application of car wax to protect the shine!

...and then gluing some stand-off glass squares for mounting a first layer of glass.

I'll post more pictures in a week. The project is complete, but it is a commissioned gift...and the gift hasn't yet been awarded.
