I love and and there's nothing that says "antique" like I'm going to show you how you can create a on almost any surface. I tried it on a wood picture frame, and a travertine tile (for a coaster).
Here’s what you need to get an antique-looking copper patina on just about anything. I used Modern Masters paint. They have some seriously cool supplies for paints and finishes (and they aren’t paying me to say that). I just found out about this so I can’t wait to try more! I used the Metal Effects Primer, Metal Effects Copper Paint, and Metal Effects Blue Patina Aging Solution.
Some other ideas I thought of that would work great for this:
What do you think? So cute right?

I want to try this on an old copper wash tub that has some patina. What are the steps for doing that?
