    In the USA, the pineapple is a sign of hospitality. This is a beautiful project, Ruth. All your projects are. I've learned so much watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and art.

    Yikes, that is beautiful. I know mermaids aren't a classic design in frames, but I was imagining fish scales done with this combination of gold leaf. Really gorgeous, Ruth. It is extremely kind of you to share this with us. Thank you for the incredible gift of your knowledge and experience.

    This one is fabulous. Quite a complex process start to finish! It’s nice to get a second look at the punched one- it’s really elegant. Thanks for all this work! Really a gift ☺️

    loved watching your restorations on the tv shows, so i'm sooooo excited to find you have a youtube channel, the advent idea is a brilliant way to discover/showcase your skills, but the larger restoration projects are brilliant, thank you

    Hi Ruth! I may have missed your instruction on the 2 colors of gold on the leaves. You mentioned you liked to use button polish instead of shellac cuz it brings out the green. Did you use a green bole on the pineapple leaves?

    Yes around 3:16 in the video. I mixed blue and yellow. Then the button polish makes it darker.

    Got it...... I thought it was a remixed color you could buy, then I remembered the video on "How to make Bole" ! It's premixed alright! You have to premix it yourself! Oops! Thank you!
