Recently, I bought a wood burning kit and I've been experimenting with different techniques! I thrifted some wood bowls recently. These easy doggie bowls were a good first project. Here's what I did...
1. Supplies: Wooden bowls, wood burning tool, letter stickers. 2. Begin by applying stickers to the outside of the bowl. Be very careful, making sure they line up perfectly. 3. Next, begin tracing the stickers with the wood burner. 4. Once you've traced each letter, carefully remove the stickers. 5. Lastly, add a small period to the end of each word with the burner. 6. Remove stickers and touch up any messy lines. Note: This tool can be dangerous. Be sure to follow all directions and warning that come with your tool.
Stay tuned for a second wood burning project later this week! We're having so much fun playing with this new tool. XO. Emma + Kinsey
they are super cute... where can I find this tool?

This is awesome. Dog bowls seem like the perfect starter project, I'd love to try this out!

Awesome! If these were for a kitty, I would totally make three: EAT, DRINK, BE MERRY. The last one, of course, being for catnip! ;)

Those are cute! I haven't done wood burning since high school, I'm going to have to save this for when we finally get a dog!

They are really cute buuuut wood bowls aren't really usually recommended for pets since they're hard to actually get as clean as they should be. This is why most pet bowls sold are stainless steel or ceramic as they can withstand high temperatures without damage. I would probably put stainless steel bowls inset because make a cute outer bowl.

They look great! I would love to do something like woodburning. It just adds so much more possibility to the things I could make! Also, your pug is sooo cute!

This is so cool! I might be incredible out of the loop here, but I didn't even know something like this existed :P Where did you get the wood burning kit from?

I received a wood burning kit as a present when I was a kid and it was one of the best things ever! I spent hours and hours working on projects. So fun to see it here!

That is so neat! I had a wood-burning tool when I was a teen and sure wish I had held onto it.
