Step 1

Sketch your snowflakes onto your wood ornament with a pencil.

Step 2

Choose the flow tip and insert it into the tool. Plug the tool in and let it preheat.
TIP: Before using the tool, read all of the warnings and instructions that come with the tool. The tool gets very hot. Always unplug the tool and let the tip cool down before changing tips. Use a pair of pliers to help with changing the tip.

Step 3

Follow your lines to draw the design with the tool, burning it into the wood.
TIP: Work in short strokes while applying light pressure. The more you burn, the darker the design.

Step 4

If desired, change out the ornament hanger for a festive twine.
