Things Don’t Always Work

So, sometimes things don’t always work the way you want. I wanted to experiment with gold leaf as an inclusion, so I bought some gold leaf (surprisingly inexpensive stuff, by the way… gold leaf is very thin) and some adhesive used for gilding. I think the adhesive must have charred in the kiln, because—as you can see—the gold ain’t so gold anymore.

Well, live and learn, eh? I’ll try it again without the adhesive and see what happens.
