Tips:

  • When choosing a surface to decorate, remember to use real leather, suede or wood . Vinyl and faux or fabricated leather, suede or wood will melt.
  • Take care to rest branding tool on its stand. For added safety, tape the stand down to hold it in place while working.
  • When using very hot tools, be careful not to touch the tips with bare skin or gloves to avoid being burned.
  • Do not let the children play with these as they can cause injury if not handled properly.

Steps:

Wood Box:

To stamp on wood, hold tool vertically and press straight down for one to two seconds . Practice on a scrap piece of wood beforehand to get a feel for how to apply the tool.

Combine different designs to decorate a box and stain the wood before or after decorating.

Frame:

For a frame, use various designs and watercolor pencils, wood stain markers, acrylic paint pens and gold or silver markers to color-in open areas of burned design.

Spray with acrylic or wood sealer when finished, if desired.

Candleholder:

Cut a piece of suede to the shape of a flat holder and glue onto the wood (use crafter's or hot glue).

Practice on a scrap of suede to get the feel for this tool beforehand. Holding the tool upright, press straight down and hold until satisfied with design.
