Craft Up-Close: Coloring Copper

Craft Up-Close: Coloring Copper 150 150 Sweenor Builders - Custom Home Building & Remodeling - Rhode Island

Sweenor’s Interior Designer Kristen Martone envisioned something special for the trim on this floating ceiling, which is located over the bar in the rec room of one of our custom building projects.  Yes, it’s the same bar that we recently featured in our craft up-close video segment on burl wood veneering! Here the Sweenor team applies a hot acid wash over copper leaf to add color and dimension.  Watch the video to see how the chemical reaction achieves the visual effect our clients were looking for… and stay tuned for the final reveal of this gorgeous bar.
