Au Naturele!
I ordered these simple plywood shapes with the intention of painting them but when they arrived found they were very pretty already. They've been laser cut so the edges are burnt a lovely rustic brown and on one side the edges are slightly "distressed". So I decided to keep them 'au naturale' and have decorated them using just my pyrography pen and a bit of red ink for the robin. On the hearts I've stamped images in a light colour and then burned over them.
You might remember I used the same technique last year on cut wooden slices. I've bought some more this year to sell at my next craft fair on 6th! Yikes - better get burning!

Wonderful! I especially like the Robin. If I had a pyrography tool I'd be using it on everything! x
