Pyrography by Fergus & Sallianne Presswell
I’ve always fancied having a go at Pyrography (literally translated it means: writing with fire or wood burning), so I was very happy when my wife bought me a pyrography tool for an early Christmas present last year.
After trying out a few test pieces, I thought I’d have a go at making some Christmas presents for family and friends. These turned out really well and everyone that saw them really liked them… and so an idea was born.
We thought we would make a few more boxes and signs and go to Christmas Craft Fairs with them. By a strange coincidence, one of them was run by our neighbour’s mum, Sue Marshman of Marshmellow Designs. This was a fortuitous meeting as she offered us a wealth of advice and inspiration.
Since then, we have expanded our range of items that we make and decorate – my wife always lines all the boxes and spends hours adding individual diamante decorations on the lids etc. We personalise all our items and often produce commissioned pieces on the spot.
I have recently started glass engraving as well so I’ll be taking orders for weddings, anniverseries etc.
