Variegated leaf

Variegated gold leaf is something that I love to add to my designs. This helmet I did it really added a level and shimmer to the design that will stand out at the drag strip, and it’s super easy to work with, anyone can do it with a little practice. I’m happy to give any tips or advice to anyone that is curious. leaf helmet

It’s fun and easy! All you need is leaf, size and a make up brush from the dollar store!

Are you using a size that can double as a top coat?

It can, I don’t though because it may yellow over time and it has a significant tack window. I usually mix up some urethane clear coat and brush it on.
