I returned home on Sunday after a few days in Derbyshire with my hubby. After attending a short pyrography workshop locally last December, I signed up for an all day pyrography workshop with Bob Neill in Derbyshire. I remember seeing Bob demonstrating at the big craft show in the NEC Birmingham many years ago. It's been on my wish list for a long time to attend one of his workshop. What an amazing day I had on Saturday! I learnt so much about the craft and with just two of us in the group (not my 'uncrafty' hubby, I hasten to add 🤣), we had lots of individual attention.
We started by practising different techniques on small plaques.
We then progressed to decorating a spoon.
Our final project was to decorate a cheeseboard.
If you ever fancy learning the craft of pyrography, I can't recommend Bob highly enough. The course was held in Bob's home and included a delicious lunch prepared by his lovely wife, Del. I now have my own machine and look forward to hopefully developing my pyrography skills.
