Thanks, Kirk. I neglected to mention that Linda will be photographed in her kayak, Kiche, on the ocean with an extra long veil trailing in the water. She saw a photo similar to this idea some time back and was hoping to have the same for herself...weather providing. I am doing up my S&G NH just for this event. Next week I will sand off some of those real maple leaves I embedded into the epoxy a couple of years back because they are lifting. I will then draw a maple leaf on the deck, tape it off, wet it out and then embed varicolored pieces of metal flake (coppers, reds, ambers) and coat it with enough epoxy to seal it up. The final step will involve using 24-carat gold leaf paint to trim up the edges of the maple leaf. I am not sure what I will do with the rest of any exposed deck area so I will have to do more thinking. If you have an idea, please chirp in.
