Happy Year of the Dragon!
welcome to ice carving secrets
Are you fascinated with the art of sculpting ice? Does the sight of an intricately detailed ice sculpture at a wedding reception immediately draw your attention? Or have you marveled at how a color logo or unusual design was captured in ice? If so, you've come to the right place. Ice carving secrets is born of the love for and fascination with ice sculptures and how they are made. Please take a look around; the sight is miles from anything nearing complete, but there's still a lot here for ice carving aficianados.The most recent additions from the old site are somewhat updated secrets blog entries. (The original entries are still available at icecarvingsecrets.com.) Check out the new incarnations at these links:
Quality ice sculpture designs are one of the main reason that ice carvers visit ice carving secrets and now there are new ebooks that neatly package new and old ice sculpture designs geared to a specific theme or holiday. The Halloween design ebook was the first to debut, followed by Thanksgiving and Holiday editions. A New Year's version will have to wait until the next time around. However, there will be more ebooks coming soon, although dates for their release have not been set. A set of sea life designs are being prepared and there are many other possibilities. In addition to the selection of quality designs, the ebooks also include lots of ice sculpting tool and technique info; future ebooks will include more sections that focus on specific tools and techniques that are useful when applied to the included designs. They'll also include access to ready-to-print templates, which will be an exciting addition!
This version of the site is still a work in progress, however, so if you're looking for some of the old stuff, including a lot of designs, pix, and technique info, it will still be available at icecarvingsecrets.com for some time.
