I really love the texture in those Hayley! And the color (natural patina?) is beautiful too, goes with the texture well, it gives a vintage feel.
I changed my approach and instead of doing one really long bath, I do 3-4 hours, the copper is usually still smooth, then I smooth it out and shine it with my dremel sanding disk/brass brush combo and put it in the bath again for another layer and just build it up like that. It obviously takes more work, but at least I'm not sitting around waiting, haha. I'm hoping for more consistent results this way, will see how it goes
