OKAY. So that post before where I tried to explain what I was making? Here are pictures.
There. That’s the mezuzah I’m making for my sister. See the colored pencil? See the copper leafing on the moon? It’s nice. The only problem is that it’s very very shiny, like the vinyl coverings your great-aunt put on the couch so no one would mess it up. Here’s a picture taken with a flash.
See. SHINY. Not what I want. I tried spraying it with matte clear coat, but that just made it sticky. Then I dusted it with talc powder to make it not-sticky, and it didn’t tone down the shine either. I will have to put on my thinking cap to solve this conundrum.
