"SOME USEFUL THINGS IN BURNT WOOD" by Florence C. Fetherston Adapted from an article in an 1898 issue of THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL, The Curtis Publishing Company, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.

Although the E-Museum has been aware of Florence Fetherston—the author, artist, and illustrator of the article exhibited here—for some years, there is very little known about her. This article illustrates how to use pyrography on practical everyday utilitarian objects. This is the second article by her that the E-Museum has found and that THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL published.

In addition, THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL had already published an article about J. William Fosdick in 1896, entitled "The Fire Etcher and His Art," which can be found in this artist's large section in the Antique Hall here in the E-Museum.

If you have either any questions to ask or any additional information to offer on Florence Fetherston
or the 1898 article exhibited here, please e-mail the E-Museum Curator.
