What you'll learn:

Gilded initials are perfect for use on the most formal corporate piece to the most informal gifts! Frame them, use them on a fancy certificate.

Just want to use gold leaf? Apply the gilding techniques to other art pieces like the centers of your flowers or filigrees.

Harvest provides us with multiple capital alphabet exemplars to choose from and then guides us through adding embellishments and designs to create a unique piece of art.
