Start with a simple piece of wood and learn to turn it into a functional utensil in this beginner-friendly wood-carving workshop. Over four hours, you’ll learn the fundamentals of hand carving while shaping your own small wooden spoon.
Your instructor will introduce you to basic carving safety and show you how to use essential hand tools. You’ll practice shaping the wood, refining the form, and sanding your spoon to create a smooth finish. You’ll also learn how to stain your finished piece and, if time allows, personalize it using the traditional kolrosing technique.
No previous woodworking or carving experience is needed! This wood carving class is designed to give beginners plenty of hands-on practice, with a short break midway through the four-hour session.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a handmade wooden spoon and a foundation in wood carving. This class is perfect if you're looking to learn how to carve wood or make unique homeware!
