Yellow foil is a cost-effective option for decorating nails, crafts, and canvas projects. It can be applied to various surfaces, including wood, metal, drywall, stone, glass, ceramic, concrete, and plastic. You can easily turn it into flakes for mixed media artwork. Each leaf comes in its own paper sleeve, and the loose-leaf size is 9×8 cm. You can use any gold leaf size, including Permacoll or Kolner Aqua Gilding.
When working with coloured leaf, it’s best to use Gilder’s Gloves or Kolner Instacoll Tissue to prevent leaving fingerprints, as these imprints can become visible after applying the sealer. Afterwards, use a gilder’s mop or duster to buff away any excess flakes from the surface gently.
