House Sign Step 1

Measure the plaque. When you create a design allow 5mm around the edge to ensure it fits. The font shown is Marigold, you can find free fonts available with a quick internet search. Once you have created your design, in the settings of your design software flip the image horizontally and print onto tracing paper.

Step 2
Cut off the excess tracing paper and place the ink side down onto the plaque and tape into place.

Step 3

Using the embossing tool, gently rub over the image to transfer the ink onto the plaue. Peel back the paper and check the pressure you have applied is enough.

Step 4
Allow the pyrography tool to heat up for approximately five to ten minutes. Use a round ended tip as it will flow easier when burning.
Square Sign Step 1

Measure the plaque. Chose your design, the fonts shown are Debby and Bite_Bullet, you can find free fonts available with a quick internet search. Print or photocopy onto tracing paper making sure the design is smaller than 14cm x 14cm and trim the excess paper. Tape the tracing paper into position along the top. Place the Graphite Trace Down underneath the tracing paper and tape securely.

Step 2

Trace your design using a hard pencil with medium pressure, check your pressure by lifting both sheets.

Step 3

Allow the pyrography tool to heat up for approximately five minutes.

Step 4

Once you have finished burning you may wish to use a sharp scalpel to gently scratch away mistakes or scorch marks.
