Don't Leaf Me! 🍃
 
I wanted to recreate the missing green leaf from my Key Lime iBook, so I carefully made a mold from an original leaf and cast new ones in resin.
 
Matching the color turned out to be much more difficult than I expected. It took several days of mixing and testing pigments before I reached a result I was happy with. While the color isn't a perfect 100% match to the original, I think it comes remarkably close.
I figured there might be a few other people around the world looking for the same solution, so I made about ten extra leaves. Unfortunately, the mold began to lose detail after about twelve castings, so I don't expect to make any more once these are gone.
 
Although they are small, each one takes a surprising amount of time to produce, so I can't offer them at a very low price. The price simply reflects the time and effort involved in making them.
For installation, I recommend using a thin piece of double-sided tape. If you want a permanent repair, a tiny drop of two-part epoxy adhesive will securely hold it in place.
 
Since this item is small enough to be mailed as a card, shipping is inexpensive. When purchased by itself, it can be sent via Registered Airmail to most countries for approximately US$7.
 
Please Note
Each leaf is cast from a mold taken from a genuine used original part, so slight imperfections or variations are to be expected.
Every effort has been made to match the original Key Lime color, but the resin color is not an exact match.
