Priming the Copper Cross
No freaking out! Promise? Ok, you can look. We know, it kind of looks like the yellow styrofoam version of the copper cross at this point, but it’s the real thing, we promise! Our beautiful copper cross is on its way to its heavenly golden coat. To get there, we had to first prime the entire structure. We tinted the primer a light buttercream color to compliment the gold leaf overlay. The next step is to apply the size and start gilding.
Though everything looks a little crazy right now, it will all come together in gleaming perfection when we’re done. Guaranteed. You’ll see!
