Spoon Carving Workshop
Event description
Come out for a day of woodcarving 🪵
I'll be providing all the tools, materials and guidance needed to carve your very own wooden eating spoon.
Sharing a day together in learning the ways of wood, getting to know carving tools and up skilling yourself in ancestral craft.
By the end you will not only have your own unique and practical creation in your hands to keep, but a soothing remembrance of primal ways that feeds the soul.
In the workshop we will go over how to ethically forage timber, what wood species are good for carving, correct techniques and knife safety followed by a demonstration of how to axe out a spoon blank, you will then carve your own from pre-prepared branch pieces.
- All tools and materials are provided

- Bring a potluck meal or snacks to share together for lunch + water bottle and a sitting mat/cushion/chair to sit on in each ever way your comfortable
Spaces are limited and sell out quick!
Testimonial:
“Thank you for sharing your craft and expertise! Woodcarving was the highlight of my week. So cathartic and primal, and it felt so natural. I'm obsessed with whittling now, I have longed to try it for years and so excited for where this journey takes me.’’ - Shannyn
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land wurundjeri on which our workshop takes place. May we continue to give back with presence and reciprocity.
With warmth, Sal
