Barbeque Picnic Platter- for the grill-master Dad!
How to make it: Choose your piece, draw your design out in pencil (it will burn away in the kiln, so don’t worry if it shows). If you need, we can provide you with a ruler for straight lines. Then, using a small brush, carefully fill in your pencil-drawn design. Estimated time: 1 hour 30 minutes
