projects, patterns & instructions to get crafty with pyrography

"If you're a crafter or an artist looking for something new and different, try pyrography. With this type of art, you use a heated instrument to burn images and words into wood. By using techniques from drawing, such as shading and stippling, you can also add depth and embellishments to your creations. It's easy to get started with pyrography--and Creative Woodburning can help you jump into this hot new craft. This book features: an introduction to pyrography and the tools you need to get started ; expert advice on how to choose the right materials and how to create a safe working environment ; 20 projects, including a jewelry box, a cutting board, a wooden egg, a clock, and a gourd birdhouse ; more than 180 patterns--from animal and nature designs to borders and geometric and decorative shapes ; techniques for shading, adding color, and sealing your projects."--, Amazon.com
