Easy Homemade Gift: Engrave a Wooden Salad Bowl Set

Engrave a Wood Salad Bowl Set for the Perfect Anniversary Gift Kids Can Make for Mom and Dad

Looking for a unique and homemade gift for the kids to make for Mom and Dad this year on their anniversary? This engraved Wood Salad Bowl Set is an elegant, stylish, and extremely useful gift that anyone can make for an anniversary gift, Mother's Day gift, and even a birthday gift.

You can also engrave this Wood Salad Bowl Set for a bridal shower, wedding present, Christmas gift or even as a Father's Day gift.

You should buy good quality Wood Salad Bowl Set. I bought my Wood Salad Bowl Set for about $30 at Bed Bath and Beyond and the wood really looks substantial, laying a great foundation for any engravings I might add.

To Make an Engraved Wood Salad Bowl Set Anniversary gift You Will Need:

1 Wood Salad Bowl Set

Wood Burning Tool

White computer paper

Pencil or pen

Sheet of Graphite

Letters or Image

Wood burning tool tips

Stencil (optional)

Now, once you have bought your Wood Salad Bowl Set you can determine what design or words you want to engrave with your wood burning tool. Try to customize this unique gift to suit your hostess or whomever you will be giving it to.

For an anniversary gift why not engrave the wedding date around the top edge of the bowl. You could also write "Mr. & Mrs. So and So" in the bottom middle of the wooden salad bowl. You could also engrave their wedding flowers on the bowl.

I recommend small designs or words.

Now, you can do anything from simple words to a more difficult image. The trick is to transfer it to your Wood Salad Bowl Set.

Lay your Wood Salad Bowl Set out on a sheet of white paper. Trace the shape out. Now, you will need to work slightly smaller inside of this area you traced.

Whatever image or words you chose to engrave on the Wood Salad Bowl Set you can use a sheet of graphite to transfer the design to your Wood Salad Bowl Set. Simply lay the sheet of graphite down first, and then lay out your image, wedding dates, words, or whatever on top. Now, use a pen to trace all the needed lines, edges, and details.
