The great thing about the copper is it is thin and when annealed is very easy 
to work with.When all done I dip them in muriatic acid to clean them, rinse 
in solution to neutralize the acid let them dry and then heat them very slowly 
with a propane torch to get the colors to change in them.When I get where I 
want I remove the heat to let them cool then spray laquer them to hold that color
