I knew rust in an open wound is extremely dangerous and that inhaled over a long term rust causes lung disease.

I love the end effect and it will be cool to see what you will come up with. Funny, growing up on a sawmill, I always touched rusty crap including chains with my bare hands.

This technique made some fantastic rusty fabric-at least some pieces. I didn't know about tannins and rust and it is good to know since last summer on my walks I collected some items to use to make some rust fabric. I never had time to make it, but this summer it is on my list. Hope your computer issues are fixed and your week starts off with lots of recycling fun. hugs-ErikaMy name is Erika.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04834435573574156495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-34162206078807924102018-04-02T04:27:42.953-05:002018-04-02T04:27:42.953-05:00Fabulous rusty results, it was a great post to rev...Fabulous rusty results, it was a great post to revisit.<br />Yvonne xxMeggymayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15523023041456397683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-83836889937427839512018-04-02T04:07:04.448-05:002018-04-02T04:07:04.448-05:00wowzer your rusting results are awesome.π [Aussi...wowzer your rusting results are awesome.π <a href="http://thejourneyisthestarthere.blogspot.com.au/" rel="nofollow"><b>[Aussie aNNie's Blog]</b></a> <br />aussie aNNiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475057905774544464noreply@blogger.com
