How to make

You will also need:

Design software enabling you to reverse your chosen design to print

Hand held mirror (optional)

Step 1

Measure the box, use the measurements to help you create a design that will fit. The fonts shown are Clicker Script and Bite_Bullet, you can find free fonts available with a quick internet search. Once created, in the settings of your design software flip the image horizontally and print onto tracing paper.

Step 2

Place the ink side of the tracing paper face down onto the box and tape into place.

Step 3

Using the embossing tool, rub over the image gently to transfer the ink onto the box. 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 minutes.

Step 5

Use a fine tip to begin with, you can build up thickness if you need to later. Experiment with different tips to create different effects.

Step 6

Use a sharp scalpel to gently scratch away mistakes or scorch marks.
