Antique filigree

Recommended Posts

Is it best to antique before I filigree, or after? I been making filigree wallets and the usually antique after I cut. I figured it would help the sides of the cut leather however, it sure makes a mess on the backside.

put down some newspaper or cardboard before you antique, but I would still do it before. laying down something underneath, and if you use some double sided tape or something to help hold it in place, will help keep the backside a little cleaner.

Thank you. I used to put tape behind it and one day just forgot about it. Not a clue why. Maybe glue fuems are eating my brain.
