How to make

Step-1
Draw a design on the lid of the box using a pencil, this can be as intricate or as simple as you want it to be. Once ready, plug in the pyrography tool and leave to heat up for 5-10 minutes.

Step-2
Follow the outline of the design using the pyrography tool, take your time and keep an eye on how much pressure you apply as this can cause the wood to burn more or less.

Step-3
Once the basis of the design is done, start to add the rest of the design including personalised initials.
