Coast To Coast

Hi all, In last week's post I talked about how I had been asked by a friend to use my pyrography skills to do him a plaque. The plaque was to commemorate his completion of the Coast to Coast walk which he did a few years ago. Anyway, he said he wanted the plaque to include a pair of boots, a rucksack and some dry stone walling. Last week I posted the sketch that I had done for him and after his approval I started the pyrography burning process. Below is a photo of the finished item. I think it looks rather good and my friend was pleased with it too.

They say it's a woman's perogative to change her mind, well I've changed mine when it comes down to pyrography commissions. In my last post I told you about how I'd shied away from doing commissions, well having done the plaque for my friend I have a different view. Doing the lettering required total concentration but I quite enjoyed the challenge. So if you know anybody who's done the Coast to Coast, walked the Pennine Way or bagged a couple of hundred Munroes, I will do them a plaque. Just let me have the details and we'll take it from there. I will provide a no obligation and friendly service. In my next post I will tell you about my latest project and about what I purchased for the gigantic sum of £3.40. In terms of my pyrography, it was the best money I've ever spent; I didn't realise such pleasure could be acquired so cheaply.
