Featured Tutorial

This tutorial would also work for making flat artwork, just skip the slump, and it would look fantastic in a stand! For our third project using the Hummingbird Free Kiln Carving pattern, we’re going to create a painted hummingbird dish using our kiln carving stencil as a pattern. If you haven’t downloaded the pattern yet, you should probably start by doing that.
