How to apply gold leaf?

Hi
We have been asked to make a very intricate scroll pattern bed head with gold leaf on it. Bed head is well underway and gold leaf ordered, but we are not sure how to apply it to metal. Has anyone used goldleaf to accentuate a pattern? Would you mind giving a bief description of how to do it?
Many thanks
Michelle and Andy
