I have researched the art of rusting..and have found a recipe that I decided to try this morning.
It is a two day process, and I hope it really works as the tutorial says!
I gathered up my items and set out to Rust!
I purchased the safety pins at a local dollar store. I have heard the cheaper the better, and they work great for rusting..
Rusted items look great on homemade dolls and pillows.
Really can give that "Primitive" look that I love :)
This is everything in the jar..and what it looked like at the start:

Looks like something is in the works!
For the tutorial that I am using for this rusting technique,
you can go to the site I am using:
CRAFTY AVENUE RUSTING TUTORIAL
I will post again when this experiment is done..I will let you know if it worked.
(Keeping my fingers crossed!)
Raggedystitches,
That looks cool! Think of all the things you could rust up! Buttons! Stars!
