I love your wood-burning! Can you please explain how you did it?
Oh, wow, thank you; I didn’t think anyone noticed it!
Well I used a carbon pencil to draw the design onto the wood, and then using a tool similar to the one below, and with several different tips, I burned the pattern. It’s like drawing, but more complicated because you have to keep moving or it’ll burn faster. It takes experience, but it’s a lot of fun.
