SPOON SESSION

WITH

HARRY SAMUEL

Sunday 28th April 

​

Join us for a day of crafting, from branch to tool you will create your very own spoons to take away with you. Come and experience the calm and therapeutic qualities of carving.  

 

Your experienced tutor will teach you the basics of carving green wood, introducing you to techniques and top tips to help you along the way. You will start the day with a spoon blank and, using only a straight knife and hook knife, you will learn the safe and efficient way of using these tools. By lunchtime, you will have carved a spoon!

 

After lunch, the focus will be on the whole process from log to product. You will learn the principles of cleaving wood and will rough out a spoon blank with a carving axe. You will then put into practice the skills you gained in the morning. This means you will head home with two handcrafted spoons - what an achievement.

 

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, and the skills you will learn during your day will allow you to progress towards more carving projects.
