My first attempt at Pyrography!

Hello bloggers!

My lovely, talented friend who writes a superb blog- www.mudlarksandmagpies.blogspot.co.uk has inspired me to try Pyrography, burning designs into wood or leather, great fun!

I bought my 'tool' this afternoon, along with a few pieces of plywood and set about burning a design. I stamped some of the beautiful images from Designs by Ryn (Spiral Shell, Sea Bubbles and Raindrops) onto the wood and then when the tool was hot I burnt the designs into the wood. I coloured the piece with watered-down acrylic paint as my friend describes on her blog (you really should pop over and have a read, it's so interesting!)

Thank you for visiting, big hug! Xxx
