How to wood burn the cutest snowman gift tag
Materials:
Woodburning tool
Wooden rounds with bark
Watercolor colored pencils
Fine sandpaper
Pencil
Rubbing alcohol
Small paintbrush
Instructions:
First, sand the fronts of your wooden rounds to smooth out any rough spots. Now, draw the snowman in pencil on the front of the round. Use the examples given, but you can always add some extra additions to your snowman to personalize. Ex: Nurses cap, etc.
Begin burning your tag
Next, heat up your woodburning tool. Be extra careful since these tools get extremely hot. Carefully trace the lines on your snowman with the woodturner.
When you have finished it is time to color in the parts you want to accentuate. Color the scarf, hat, etc. with the watercolor pencil of choice.
Now, using the alcohol and the small paintbrush brush the color to blend. The alcohol makes the color sink into the wood itself.
To finish write to and from on the opposite side of the tag and use the woodturning tool to outline it.
