Gold Leaf Sheet

This is a delightful assortment of colors! Each color was sent in its own plastic wrap, with cardboard labeled on the top of each stack to tell you what each color is. Each sheet of foil is between two layers of thin paper. I have rarely had any issues grabbing only one sheet of foil. These hold up in both epoxy resin and UV resin, and don't seem to discolor in heat or UV / sunlight. They also don't leach color into the solvent, which is great! The whole sheet is the full color as well, so a sheet of red will be red on both sides and not silver-backed, for example. Sometimes you run into bad foil so I thought I would clarify that this checks out fully ! For me, one or two sheets is enough for one project at a time. These will last and I will absolutely buy them again when the time comes. There are multiple varieties of gold on offer with very subtle differences - be careful not to mix them up or knock a stack of them over (speaking from experience!)My one suggestion is to use these in a cold room and to have dry hands/gloves! That will ensure you can take the whole sheet out and crumple it as needed without any coming apart or sticking to you.

Got this for various projects have planned for this vibrant set of colored foil leads set. Have etched glass jars with handmade labels want to make more visible with wide range of colors, have some lamps and shades that need a restoration of change, some paintings I've done that want to experiment with, have some miniature DIY projects plan on using them in, and a host of other things, have different sealants for different materials will be applying these to so know cannot use an all purpose sealant for these various projects, will have to do research to find the adhesives and sealants that will work for you as an individual. I'll update this with possible pics of the various projects I'm working on at once....lol I definitely recommend, and yes these are thin individual pieces of colored foil leaf squares, all of them are if that's going to be an issue for you, this isn't for you, an try colored markers or something.... You have to be patient, an be creative. Make these projects a one of a kind.

Practice makes perfect! Foil is tricky to handle. Tears easily. But the colors are so amazing you’re going to want to try it!

I read a review from one person that said all of their sheets were curled up and broken but I went ahead and tried them anyway. Every color I got was perfectly flat except for the red ones. They curl and crack when you take the paper off. I'm not too bothered though. I warmed the leaf between its two papers with my heat gun and that helped it not roll as much. It was still cracked some but it was better than nothing. All the others are terrific and perfectly flat like the pink color shown.

This turned out to be a nice product. I am not certain exactly how I will use it, but finding a use will be fun:) Would buy again!

I tried taking pictures of each color for swatching, but it looks way better in person. Wow these sheets work well! It came in a variety of colors! It comes with paper sheets between each sheet to protect it. It’s a bit transparent, but the color is through the entire sheet, front and back. It worked well for my project and I am looking forward to using them in future projects!

Excited to use these metallic foils on a new project. I’m sure it will be a masterpiece!

This is the worst product and is impossible to use as it falls apart on its sheets. It seems I got gold powder in square sheets as these are pitiful and do not transfer from the sheet to the adhesion glue. I have gold leafed a lot and never had the issues that I have it’s these. I also note that people rated this 5 stars who never even used it yet, or for delivery on time ( which is not a product review!). I trusted all the 5 stars and am very disappointed. It is so fragile and does not work as intended. It is also so fine powder-like that when I try to brush away what isn’t on adhesive, it infiltrates the weave of my canvas on the wrong spots! Either they sent me a defective product or this is the worst item I have bought on Amazon for gold leafing! What a waste of money -but worse, it has ruined on of my fine art painting that I did and was finishing with some “Klimt “ -inspired gold leaf. So I’ve wasted money, time, and have lost one of my favorite paintings that I did.
