WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

I discovered Bee on Instagram a few years ago, when I started looking into learning wood burning so I could customize guitars. Her art inspired me to push beyond what I had thought woodburning could be. She is brilliant!

This book is also brilliant. It covers everything you need to know to get started – from tools for transferring designs, burning, and cleaning your burning tips, to safety equipment that will protect your lungs (I wish I had known about this when I started! So important!). The projects are gorgeous, and range in difficulty from beginner to advanced. The templates on the back are helpful to get an artist started with enjoying the art, without also needing to learn drawing skills.

I’m so happy to have this book on my shelf, and look forward to sharing it with others who want to learn the art of pyrography.

You must have Creative Woodburning on your book shelf. This is a great book for beginners to advanced pyrography artists! I could not put this book down once I received it in the mail. Very easy to read and well written. Bee covers tools to use, safety, and stuffed it full of projects! This book will give you tips and instructions to start projects from beginning to end. You will build your skills and confidence. Enjoy reading it, I did!

I’ve been fiddling around with wood burning on & off for several years now; and I discovered Bee on IG. Her work is tremendous and she’s very generous with her video tutorials, so I was excited to buy her book. I am SO happy I did! An enjoyable read, filled with inspiration and excellent information! I’m ready to ramp up my pyrography game! Thank you, Bee!

This is an awesome pyrography book! It is very detailed in every aspect of wood burning – including choosing the best wood and tip, pattern application, and project sealant. It has informative troubleshooting tips as well. The finished project photos are full color and the pattern/template section is a great bonus! Highly recommend!

~Gretchen

I have been dabbling in Pyrography for a couple of decades – and have just about every book on the subject. Bee’s spoke to me in a way no other has…clear instructions and samples, outstanding tips and lessons learned, and fun, engaging products. This is a wonderful book for new and experienced woodburners alike!

I have been Wood Burning for about a year off and on, I found this artist on Instagram and was blown away by her artistry and creativity, I have ordered several pieces from her, so when I saw she was sharing her skill I ordered her book, if your looking for a new fulfilling hobby for yourself or teens grab this book you’ll love it!!!

~Steve

This is not your grandfather’s woodburning! All I can say is wowza! Ms. Locke is incredibly talented and an excellent mentor for those wanting to get started doing this hobby.

You will defintely want to own the print copy of this book as it is full of patterns and templates you can use to help create your own woodburned masterpieces. The author very carefully covers safety issues, needed tools, and many suggestions for success. In a world that has been spending more time at home, woodburning would be a wonderful use of your time and offer a way to create your own unique gifts at a fraction of the retail price.

This could be a very fun hobby to work on as a family with teens (with proper supervision). You can grab your copy at Amazon! This would make a great gift for the wood enthusiast on your gift list! I highly recommend this book–so full of helpful information!
