About the Author

From the Back Cover

The first book of its kind to focus solely on leather-burning techniques and projects, this original guide is the work of a legend in the wood/leather crafting industry. Expert pyrographer Lora Susan Irish presents complete instructions for a dozen simple, easy-to-complete projects--key chains, jewelry, wallets, journals, belts, and other items--in a spectacular array of patterns ranging from Western and Celtic motifs to wildlife imagery and designs inspired by tattoo arts. Useful rather than simply decorative, these handmade treasures are perfect gifts for family and friends.
The detailed directions include full-color photographs for each step of every project plus suggestions for applying the methods and patterns to other items. In addition to coverage of the basics of pyrography and leather crafting, the guide also offers safety tips and exercises for perfecting techniques. Ideal for those who already have some background in pyrography or leather crafting, this book is equally valuable for crafters wishing to successfully apply their skills to a new area.
