Default copper sheets

Where does one go to buy copper in sheets? Going to a craft store is way to
expensive for puny little sheets they sell. Also where can i get some
information on what chemicals interact with copper to change it`s color or
hue? Thanks.

if you are looking for the green patina on copper or brass well the wife
was using some miracle grow plant food and left the bag sitting on the
window sill in the back yard.. the rain got to it and some must have
dripped down onto the copper water pipe with a brass faucet on it.. they
both turned green from the chemicals in the miracle grow plant food.
