My niece Erin (aka SuperGirl) and I have teamed up in our Crafting Adventure. She brings a lot to the table, well this next picture shows where my dining room table used to be.
I do use modern technology like printers and electric routers to make my artwork, but I also use old school stuff like hand rubbed stains and sandpaper to treat the wood projects and I use an old fashioned candle to hand burn the paper borders.
Most of the CNC engravings we do take an hour to 2 hours just to do the carving, but it is worth it. We have received so many nice comments from customers it makes it all worthwhile.
