(Lunch 12.30 - 1.00pm)

This one-day, onsite workshop is suitable for complete beginners and those with some experience

Workshop Details​
Pyrography is very similar to using a pen or pencil. Anyone can create with Pyrography. With a little practice you will soon perfect the technique, mastering the use of pressure and speed of stroke on wood.

After giving a brief talk on the history of Pyrography, Bob will demonstrate various techniques along with the correct and safe use of the tools. You will begin by starting with simple tasks, working on things such as small plaques, coasters and key fobs. As your confidence grows so will the size of piece you can work on...things like plaques for picture making, cheese/bread boards etc. If you're worried about not being able to create a design or don't consider yourself artistic then you can use rubber stamps, stencils and transfer paper to help create designs.
