Description
A pewter butterfly adds a delightful touch to this Kindle case.
<br />
<br />I embossed the butterfly using only hand tools. After achieving the detail I wanted I filled the raised areas from the back to provide stability. I then aged the design with a pewter patina and finally hand polished the butterfly until it attained the rich antique silver look.
<br />
<br />Pewter doesn't need any special cleaning process and will only need a light buffing with a soft cloth occasionally.
