Woodturning is a process of using a lathe to make various forms and shapes of wood.
Hand carving is considered a woodcraft in which a sharp object is used to create designs on the wood. Various textures
and surfaces can be created using this technique. Tools such as chip carving knife, gouges, and chisels are used.
Pyrography is considered an art using a fire or heat to decorate wood or leather.
Flocking technique lines the interior of drawers and boxers with a soft velvety finish.
Inlaying combines several techniques that involve inserting decorative pieces in to a base object to incorporate new
designs on the original product.
Gilding is considered as a decorative technique in which powder is applied on wood or other materials to give a thin
coating of gold. Methods of this technique include gluing, chemical gilding, and electroplating.
Staining is used to color wood to give an illusion of texture. This may come in two varieties. First, pigment-based stain
will color large pores of the wood, while dye-based stain color small pores of the wood.
Painting is considered the simplest way of decorating wood since there is a variety of colors that you can choose from.
One may also add a lacquer finish to make it more shiny and glossy.
2.2 Metal craft Enhancing Techniques
The following are some techniques used to enhance or add design elements on metal products.
Engraving is a method of transferring a design on metal using a hardened steel tool called burin or graver to cut into
the surface of the metal.
Etching is a process used to make designs or pictures on a metal plate by using acid that produces corrosive action.
In modern manufacturing, strong chemicals are used on other types of material.
Adding metal enhancing media such as metal paints, copic markers and antiquing kits give color to the metal product.
Metal paints may be applied using a brush or spray.
Texturing and embossing – In this technique you will need hammers, metal stamps, stencils, and other materials to
create imprints on the metal. Though there are new technologies used to emboss a metal with different textures, a hammer
and nail can still be used to create your own design.
