With a Soldering Iron, You Can Do Anything ♡
Do you remember the "soldering iron" tool you used in your middle school "technology" class?
A soldering iron is an electric device shaped like a pen. The tip gets hot and is used for soldering, which involves melting and solidifying metal.
Soldering irons may seem like professional tools, but having one at home is incredibly convenient.
You can repair broken accessories or reattach fittings, and even things that are difficult to bond with instant adhesive or glue can be fixed in an instant with a soldering iron, making it super handy ♡
You Can Also Do Wood Burning ♡
Additionally, you can use the heat from the soldering iron to create woodburning designs by engraving on wood ♩
It's fun to engrave your own original illustrations or messages and create one-of-a-kind items for the world ♡
Here are wedding items and newlywed items I'd like to create with a soldering iron ♡
Things I Want to Make with Wood Burning List ♡
① Reception Sign
Writing GROOM or BRIDE on a wooden board will create a warm atmosphere as a reception sign ♡
② Wedding Tree
You can DIY a wedding tree by using a soldering iron to carve the wooden trunk where guests can attach drop boxes ♩
③ Message for Parents' Gift
On wooden items like a three-piece clock, you can also engrave your own message on the back after purchase. And even better, it's handwritten! Isn't that amazing?
④ Garland
You can create a stump garland by connecting stumps with letters written using wood burning ♩
⑤ Spoon
Engraving illustrations or text on wooden spoons is also cute ♡ I want to write the guests' names on them to serve as both little gifts and place cards ♡
⑥ Clock
By adding clock hands to a wooden board that has patterns from wood burning, you can make a clock too ♡ It seems great as a welcome item ♩
⑦ Pouch
With a soldering iron, you can engrave not only wood but also leather products ♡ Designing your own leather book cover would be wonderful!
⑧ Nameplate/Place Card
Necessary nameplates for your house can also be made with wood burning. It's 100 times more beautiful than writing your last name on tape with a marker. Making place cards is also a good idea ♡
⑨ Cutting Board
Even a mass-produced cutting board can be transformed into a one-of-a-kind design with wood burning ♡
⑩ Binder
For binders needed at the reception, if they are made of wood, you can apply your original design ♡
